20 Greatest Moments Of Daniel Bryan's Career

By Andrew Pollard /

4. ROH Title Unification

When it comes to having great rivalries, Bryan Danielson has a long, long list of guys he tore it down with. One guy right up there near the top of this list if the now-retired Nigel McGuinness. The two had an intense rivalry and put on some stunning matches, but their battle at 2006€™s Unified event is one of the very best matches of both men€™s careers. The match had everything: it was ROH€™s first UK show, it was McGuinness€™ home country, Danielson was ROH World Champion, McGuinness was ROH Pure Wrestling Champion, it was a title unification match, the crowd was white-hot and the competitors put on a truly phenomenal example of what professional wrestling should be. The match really is the stuff of legend and is a must-see for any and all fans who maybe aren€™t familiar with Daniel Bryan€™s pre-WWE work. And not only was this a huge moment for the American Dragon, this was a huge moment for Ring of Honor and for independent wrestling as a whole.
