First of all, the link.

The dark match for Raw was Lance Cade vs. Bryan Danielson (yes, that Bryan Danielson). Cade came out first with full intro and Danielson came out after and was announced from Oakland. The crowd was really into this match and it was a good 12 minute back and forth match. It looked like Cade was going to win, but Danielson got him into the Cattle Mutilation and Cade tapped out which was a welcome surprise. Danielson looked really good in the match and the crowd was behind him (most likely due to that fact that he was in his "hometown.")

I don't know what to say >_>

No way! Could it possibly lead to...Bryan Danielson to WWE? I'm guessing not, WWE wouldn't be good for him anyway. Great news though, maybe we'll see him on TV sometime soon.

This is HUGE NEWS. The fact that he was booked to win could mean WWE is high on him, and it could potentially lead to him signing with the E. That would be a GREAT signing if you ask me, Danielson would fit in fine. He can draw heat fairly easily, and regardless of what people think, Danielson doesn't have to have 30+ minute matches to be effective. He's a great wrestler, and it would work, trust me.

Anyone who knows who Danielson is knows that this could be potentially awesome news. If Dragon goes to WWE I mark.

New set of ring gear for Mr.Danielson. Well I look at both ways, It's gonna be nice having Dragon go to the WWE but at the same time ROH isn't gonna be the same without him :(. Seeing as how he won, Theres more possibilities of him signing, But only the future holds on whats next for Danielson.

That's the thing that surprised me the most... HE WON THE MATCH! Its one thing if someone like Ron Killings or Chris Harris win a dark matcn, because they're under contract with WWE.

Danielson doesn't even have a development deal with the E, and he's going in a dark match? Either being buddies with HBK and Regal really helps him, or someone in the front office realy likes him.

I... I don't know what to say. That's awesome, I suppose. I can't believe he actually won, that is a huge idication into Danielson's future I should imagine.

That is going to be one hell of a loss for ROH if he does sign for WWE. But I'm looking forward to seeing what happens now...

Damn! I would love to see American Dragon sign with WWE! As I've said many times, the guy wrestles like he has been in the business for 30+ years, he really is phenominal, and I think this would be a BIG sign for the WWE, especially with their ability to make big stars, Bryan Danielson could easily become the next big thing for the WWE!

The dark match sounds like it was a try-out match with them giving it time and alos letting him win. THe other thing that shocks me is that they are trying to build Cade up as a singles wrestler but have him lose against somebody who is not signed with the company and it wasn't by a fluke roll-up

Danielson and DiBiase Jr anyone? I would mark out like a fat kid in a candy store for that, quite honestly.

Thats a badass team Peep.

I do think Danielson will end with the E, however, it looks like he is going to be in ROH for a little while longer. He's signed for all future ROH Shows, and the WWE would have to buy out his contract, i believe he still has about 9-12 more months on it.

THis has been a bad week for news, first trish's breast, now this.
