3. Jon Moxley

The Shield and Daniel Bryan butted heads on occasion back in the day, but 2021’s Jon Moxley is a world away from 2014’s Dean Ambrose, and PWI’s current male wrestler of the year would surely love the chance to tear it up with one of the greats.

It feels like a styles clash, but Bryan has proved his ability to make it work with wrestlers of all stripes - his 2018 clash with Brock Lesnar, for example, stripping him of his usual technique but working wonders. Moxley’s intensity is matched only by a few performers - one of them, when he wants, is Daniel Bryan.

AEw fans will want freshness rather than WWE rehashes when Bryan rocks up, but Moxley’s incredibly successful reinvention would surely bely those fears in most viewers. He’s undeniably A list among the AEW roster, and a war with Bryan just feels like money.

Bryan’s recent scraps with Roman Reigns have been superb, and his history with Tyler Black-era Seth Rollins lives long in ROH fans’ memories. On AEW, let’s see him complete his Shield trilogy in style.
