It will be Danielson's first AEW pay-per-view bout
Oct 30, 2021
Bryan Danielson has advanced to the finals of the AEW World Title Eliminator tournament, and will compete at Full Gear on November 13 for a future title match.
Danielson defeated Eddie Kingston in a semifinal bout on Friday's Rampage broadcast. Kingston passed out while Danielson had him snared in a triangle choke, leading to a stoppage.
Danielson previously defeated Dustin Rhodes in the quarterfinals.
After the match, an irate Kingston interrupted a CM Punk backstage interview, loudly expressing his distaste with the stoppage finish. Punk took exception to the unexpected interruption, and exchanged words with Kingston.
Danielson will face the winner of the match between Jon Moxley and Orange Cassidy, which takes place on this Wednesday's Dynamite.
The current card for AEW Full Gear, taking place Saturday, November 13 at the Target Center in Minneapolis, is as follows:
* AEW World: Kenny Omega (c) vs. "Hangman" Adam Page
* AEW Women's: Dr. Britt Baker DMD (c) vs. Tay Conti
* AEW World Tag Team: Lucha Bros (c) vs. FTR
* AEW World Title Eliminator tournament final: Jon Moxley or Orange Cassidy vs. Bryan Danielson
