Nigel McGuinness issued his final challenge and warning to Bryan Danielson.
On the September 21st episode of AEW Collision, Nigel McGuinness called out AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson for being pathetic and hiding behind a fake injury because he fears him.
Nigel said that while the fans cheer Bryan, they identify with Nigel.
Tony Schiavone stood up for Danielson, saying Danielson is not afraid, he's simply not cleared. Nigel dismissed Tony's claims.
Nigel said that if Danielson shows up, he will beat him, he will destroy him, and he will finally have vindication.
Nigel closed his promo by saying, "If there's a God in heaven, it will happen. If there's not...may the Devil hear my prayer."

McGuinness and Danielson will take place if Danielson is cleared to wrestle.
McGuinness swooped in and asked for the bout once Darby Allin gave up his AEW World Title match against Danielson after Jon Moxley told Allin that Danielson wouldn't make it to Grand Slam. Moxley suffocated Danielson with a plastic bag at AEW All Out and Danielson has not been heard from since.
McGuinness and Danielson had many wars against each other in ROH in the 2000s. They last wrestled against each other in 2009.
