Several AEW wrestlers, executives, referees, as well as other pro wrestling legends and personalities raved about the “Hangman” Adam Page vs. Bryan Danielson 60-minute time-limit draw in the AEW Championship opening contest at the second-annual AEW Dynamite: Winter Is Coming special event on Wednesday night.
During the match itself and after the bout, which saw Page retain the AEW Championship after he and Danielson fought to a 60-minute time-limit draw, many stars from the pro wrestling world flocked to social media to sing the praises of the two performers.
Among those who chimed in on Twitter to rave about the Page-Danielson instant classic match were AEW President Tony Khan, two-time WWE Hall of Fame legend Ric Flair, fellow WWE Hall of Fame legend Sean “X-Pac” Waltman, Brian Pillman Jr. of The Varsity Blondes, Wheeler Yuta of The Best Friends, AEW women’s contender “Legit” Leyla Hirsch, as well as AEW referees Bryce Remsburg and Aubrey Edwards.
Tony Khan wrote the following in his first of two tweets praising the Page-Danielson match.
“If you’re a pro wrestling fan, we have an AMAZING wrestling match NOW for the AEW World Championship, the champion ‘Hangman’ Adam Page vs. Bryan Danielson,” wrote Khan. “This is one of the best matches ever in AEW on TNT LIVE on AEW Dynamite: Winter Is Coming NOW! Thank you to you fans!”
In an additional tweet posted later during the 60-minute time-limit draw classic between Page and Danielson, the AEW boss-man wrote, “What an amazing match! ‘Hangman’ Adam Page vs. Bryan Danielson for the AEW World Championship RIGHT NOW on AEW Dynamite!”
He continued, “Thank you to all of you fans joining us for tonight’s Dynamite, one of the biggest nights of wrestling TV all year [at] Winter Is Coming 2021!”
Also chiming in with a ton of praise for the two AEW stars was none other than the 60-minute man himself, Ric Flair.
“I’ve done so many hour draws, some great, some average,” Flair. “Tonight, you gentlemen set a new bar!!”
‘The Nature Boy’ added, “The wrestling world can learn from [‘Hangman’] Adam Page & Bryan Danielson! CONGRATULATIONS! WOOOOO!”
