Daniel Bryan

O Eurosport Turkey entrevistou Daniel Bryan. Eis os highlights:...

Being trained by Shawn Michaels and William Regal: “Being trained by Shawn Michaels and William Regal was a great opportunity. Not everyone gets this opportunity. Imagine what someone like Kaval would be if he was trained by HBK& Regal”

Comparing WWE to the Indys: “I miss the intimacy of the fans in independent scene. They have their pluses and minuses but I can say I miss the fans there.”

Disliking WWE's Original NXT TV Concept: “NXT was disrespectful to wrestling in general. The entire show. When Undertaker debuted, he didn’t have to climb ladders or carry kegs. I trained to be a wrestler for a long time, so let me go out and wrestle. If you have me go out and do these stupid contests, you make me look stupid and it’s very difficult to make stars when you already made them look stupid on television”

His “The Future is Bright for Bryan Danielson” Promo on NXT: “One of the things people don’t know about NXT is that we were never told what to say, and we never knew the questions people were asking us. When the interviewer asked me “You were a big fish in a small pond and now you seemingly drowned in the sea that is the WWE”, my response was “No, this character that you created for me, he’s failed, because you created him to fail. But me, as a person, I’m better than this. I can go out and do, I can do what I’m doing right now, which is capturing the imagination of the crowd.”

The Choking Justin Roberts Incident: “I did what I felt was natural, but I am not used to wrestle in a confined environment. WWE has to be very carful about being PG. I wasn’t used to that at the time. I was an independent wrestler, Sometimes I would do things because it just felt right, and when it felt right, it wasn’t right for the company.”

Being a World Heavyweight Champion: “Being a world champion is cool, but you don’t just wanna be the champion, you want to be the man, you wanna be the guy they rely on for everything. Even though I was the world champion, I never was the man. John Cena, even though he isn’t the champion, he’s the man, and that’s what you aspire to be. At the end of the day, you wanna be the man”

Wanting To Do More Serious Work In WWE: “I was able to do lots of comedy stuff on Pro Wrestling Guerilla and shows like that, it’s been fun to do that to a wider audience. But now, I’m starting to feel like aching for the more serious stuff, being able to go out there and just wrestle. “

Daniel Bryan numa entrevista dada The Washington Post abordou o seu papel da WWE e definiu a companhia como um todo e não a considera como sendo wrestling. Bryan disse:...

“Eu não considero que seja wrestling. Eu já lutei wrestling em todo lado. Ao seres um bom wrestler tu podes tornar-te popular mas na WWE não é assim. É mais importante o entretenimento do que ser um bom wrestler. Isso fascina-me. Algumas coisas simplesmente se encaixam. Porque é que isso aconteceu? Eu não sei.”

Para aqueles que afirmam que a WWE não vê Daniel Bryan como um main-eventer, neste momento ele está bookado para estar no main-event do Money in the Bank do dia 14 de Julho em Filadélfia a lutar pelo título da WWE contra John Cena.....

O plano que poderá ser alterado, não vê Bryan como heel no combate e onde dada a cidade onde o PPV acontecerá, Bryan será certamente apoiado. A WWE não pretende que Bryan se torne heel mas o plano poderá mudar. Segundo a WON, a WWE quer fazer de John Cena “uma lenda” ao bater The Rock, subviver a Ryback e ter um combate do ano contra Daniel Bryan.
