Bryan Danielson may no longer be a WWE Superstar, but that didn’t stop him from using an old WWE catchphrase of his after this week’s AEW Collision.
This week’s Collision saw the roster of AEW continue on the road to Worlds End, which will take place in Uniondale, New York on December 30. In the AEW Continental Classic, Claudio Castagnoli defeated Andrade El Idolo to earn three points. Eddie Kingston defeated Daniel Garcia to earn three points. Garcia is still competing but has already been statistically eliminated as he has yet to score a single point.
Bryan Danielson After AEW Collision
In the main event of this week’s AEW Collision, Bryan Danielson defeated Brody King to earn three points in the Blue League. After the show, Danielson received a loud YES! chant from the crowd, and Bryan admitted he’s not allowed to do that anymore. Thinking better of it, Danielson decided to join in with the YES! chant and thanked the fans for coming out to the show.
After Collision ended, Garland started chanting YES! so Bryan Danielson said "what the hell, I'm not allowed but who's gonna stop me" and then did the YES! chant himself.
Best part? The camera crew actually recorded it. Haha, incredible. pic.twitter.com/XxrMrXXqUL

This victory gives Danielson a total of nine points, putting him in joint first place in the Blue League, alongside Andrade El Idolo. In the Gold League, Jon Moxley is in first place with 12 points, while Swerve Strickland and Jay White currently have nine points.
What’s Next?
Next week will see the final points-based matches in the AEW Continental Classic. On December 27, AEW will host its Dynamite: New Year’s Smash event, in which the first and second place of each league will face off. The winners of those matches will face off at AEW World End to determine the first AEW Triple Crown Champion.
