AEW star Daniel Garcia compared him to The Rock in a tweet which has since been deleted.

Garcia made his debut in the Jacksonville-based promotion in September 2020 during an episode of Dark. He’s a member of the Jericho Appreciation Society and recently scored a big win against Bryan Danielson.

The New York native recently took to Twitter to draw comparisons between himself and one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. Though he deleted the post afterwards, it was already noticed by many who did not find logic in the tweet. Here is what he wrote:

"Yes I am the next The Rock"

AEW star Daniel Garcia recently lost against Bryan Danielson on Dynamite

A few days back on a special Fight For The Fallen edition of Dynamite, Garcia went one up against Bryan Danielson. Bryan made his in-ring return from injuries that day. It was hailed as the biggest win of Garcia's wrestling career.

However, the two stars clashed again on a recent episode of AEW Dynamite - this time in a "Best 2-Out-of-3 Falls" match. The former WWE star got his revenge after applying a triangle choke to his opponent before transitioning into a LeBell Lock for the victory. Danielson won the match by a score of two falls to one.

Garcia has made a name for himself in career so far despite suffering broken legs in 2019 due to a car accident.
