Strong/Danielson I rewatch

Too long.  Could have cut 5-10 minutes from this and it would have been a much tighter match and probably top 10.  It’s not like the leg work in the end wasn’t bad, but it had nothing to do with the finish.  Strong’s selling was alright.  The arm work wasn’t worked on much so I could live with him not selling it the rest of the match.  His leg selling was also very good.  Danielson didn’t really sell Rod’s back work.  It was similar to Gibson’s selling in the Gibson/Strong Unforgettable match.  I’m not exactly thrilled with Strong’s “backbreaker” offense being sold like Bret Hart’s 5 moves of doom.  I’ll give this one more shot.  Same for Danielson/Aries 3.
