As for opponents he has never shared the ring with, he made it clear that he wants to take on Ricochet and Bryan Danielson.

“I feel like in the past several years, I have wrestled a majority of the world’s best wrestlers so there are a ton of rematches that I really want,” Bailey said. “The main one behind against Kenny Omega. In terms of people I have never wrestled, Ricochet and I have crossed paths many times but never actually shared the ring. The top one is Bryan Danielson. I realize that this might never happen, but it’s definitely highest on the list for me.
