The main event of AEW WrestleDream 2024 saw Bryan Danielson defend the world title against Jon Moxley, after the latter had betrayed The American Dragon last month at All Out. Helped in particular by the presence of Marina Shafir around the ring, Jon Moxley won the fight by submission when the referee stopped it with his Bulldog Choke.
