2025-01-17 19:21:59 +0000 UTCChristopher Daniels is one of my all-time favorite wrestlers. He and AJ Styles had an amazing rivalry, then teamed to become the “Phenomenal Angels.” So glad I got to attend the ROH ppv where he beat Adam Cole for the ROH title.

2025-01-17 19:15:25 +0000 UTCWow a bunch of accounts are getting terminated probably because 95% of wrestling media has no training, no credentials, no shame and it is why I say 2nd only to politics. Wrestling media has turned its consumers into a unintelligent fanbase due to the immaturity, lies and grifting of the product from people formally in the business who have trained the new breed of journalism and podcasters into being cancer to longevity instead of making it thrive

2025-01-17 19:05:21 +0000 UTCI would have liked it to at least be on dynamite. Zero hour though would have limited his opponents

2025-01-17 19:00:31 +0000 UTCAll due respect, having your last match on a taped Collision is a bad choice.. they couldn't give him the Zero-Hour main event or something? Those matches are meaningless anyway

2025-01-17 18:48:11 +0000 UTCShould've been TNA World Champion, but on the plus side, he won the ROH World title. Thank you for so many amazing moments and matches, Daniels.
