Nigel McGuinness Eyes Dream Matches with AEW Stars After Surprising In-Ring Return at All In
Nigel McGuinness made a surprising return to in-ring action at AEW All In after a 12-year absence from professional wrestling. Following his comeback, McGuinness has expressed interest in potential matches with several AEW colleagues and former NJPW World Television Champion Zack Sabre Jr. He specifically mentioned Bryan Danielson, citing their shared history, as well as Adam Copeland and Lee Moriarty as potential opponents.
McGuinness and Danielson have a notable history dating back to their time in Ring of Honor during the late 2000s. They faced each other in significant matches, including a title unification bout at ROH Unified in 2006 and a world championship match at Rising Above 2008. At AEW All In, McGuinness had the opportunity to compete alongside Zack Sabre Jr. in the Casino Gauntlet match, giving fans a glimpse of a potential dream matchup between the two.
While McGuinness is open to these matches, some obstacles remain. Adam Copeland is currently sidelined with a leg injury, and Lee Moriarty was not featured at All In. However, with McGuinness expressing interest in these matchups, there is a possibility that fans may see these encounters in the future.
