Over the last decade or so Bryan Danielson has managed to become one of the top stars in the professional wrestling business, and there’s many who consider him to be one of the best wrestlers in the industry today.
During a recent episode of his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast two time Hall of Famer Ric Flair shared his thoughts on Bryan, and while he praised the former WWE Champion he did note that he thinks Kenny Omega is above him.
“He’s okay. This is how I feel: when Hunter put him over at WrestleMania [30] that made him. He’s a very talented kid, don’t misunderstand me but you have to have one match, one place, one day, somewhere that makes you who you are. He’s a hell of a performer, I don’t see him as being Kenny Omega. I like him but you’re just asking me my opinion. As a babyface he’s not Ricky Steamboat, as a heel he’s not me. If that pisses people off then they just have to live with it.”
The Nature Boy went on to say that he likes the fact that Bryan Danielson works hard, but he also refrained from calling Bryan “great.”
“That was the night that made Bryan. I like him a lot personally but you start asking me to talk about who’s great and who’s not, he’s got a style. He’s not AJ Styles by any means. He’s a little bit smaller than AJ but he’s not AJ Styles. I like his conditioning, I like that he works hard, he’ll do anything and sacrifice his body at all odds. He throws himself around and takes some incredible bumps. He’s a hell of a hand but you’re asking me, once again, who’s good and who’s great. I think he’s very good.”
