Ric Flair On Bryan Danielson Vs. Hangman Page: "You Gentlemen Set A New Bar"

By Sai Mohan

As we've noted, AEW World Champion Hangman Page and Bryan Danielson fought to a 60-minute draw on tonight's AEW Dynamite.

The match received a lot of praise on social media, with several former and current wrestlers chiming in with their views. Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair was floored by the contest as well, praising Page and Danielson for setting "a new bar" and putting on a pro wrestling clinic that "the wrestling world can learn from."

I've Done So Many Hour Draws, Some Great, Some Average! Tonight, You Gentlemen Set A New Bar!! The Wrestling World Can Learn From @theAdamPage & @bryandanielson! CONGRATULATIONS! WOOOOO! @AEW #AEWDynamite

Towards the final seconds of the bout, Page seemingly had the match won with a Buckshot Lariat, but couldn't cover Danielson before the time ran out. The announcers agreed they were hoping to see a rematch down the road. Bryan's AEW in-ring debut against Kenny Omega also ended in a 30-minute draw.

Earlier this week, Flair referred to Danielson as an "OK" pro wrestler while speaking on his podcast. You can watch a video clip of the same below.
