Eurosport Turkey interviewed Daniel Bryan over the weekend. Here are some (translated) highlights of what Bryan said about:
Being trained by Shawn Michaels and William Regal:
âBeing 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& Regalâ
Comparing WWE to the Indys:
âI miss the intimacy of the fans in independent scene. They have their pluses and minuses but I can say I miss the fans there.â
Disliking WWEâs Original NXT TV Concept:
âNXT was disrespectful to wrestling in general. The entire show. When Undertaker debuted, he didnât 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 itâs very difficult to make stars when you already made them look stupid on televisionâ
His âThe Future is Bright for Bryan Danielsonâ Promo on NXT:
âOne of the things people donât 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 âYou were a big fish in a small pond and now you seemingly drowned in the sea that is the WWEâ, my response was âNo, this character that you created for me, heâs failed, because you created him to fail. But me, as a person, Iâm better than this. I can go out and do, I can do what Iâm doing right now, which is capturing the imagination of the crowd.â
The Choking Justin Roberts Incident:
âI 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 wasnât 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 wasnât right for the company.â
Being a World Heavyweight Champion:
âBeing a world champion is cool, but you donât 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 isnât the champion, heâs the man, and thatâs what you aspire to be. At the and of the day, you wanna be the manâ
Wanting To Do More Serious Work In WWE:
âI was able to do lots of comedy stuff on Pro Wrestling Guerilla and shows like that, itâs been fun to do that to a wider audience. But now, Iâm starting to feel like aching for the more serious stuff, being able to go out there and just wrestle. â
