According to WWE.com, here’s what Danielson had to say:
“is a ‘laid back, easygoing guy’ who doesn’t get mad in the ring, but has the technical skills that rival some of the greatest WWE Superstars. However, he is not a winner. He gets in the ring with Batista and he’s good enough technically to push him to the limits with his submission. The same thing with Chris Jericho. But Daniel Bryan is a figment of the WWE’s imagination. Daniel Bryan has never been anywhere except WWE. Daniel Bryan has lost every match he’s ever been in. But Bryan Danielson is a former World Champion. Bryan Danielson is champion wherever he’s ever been. Bryan Danielson is one of the best wrestlers in the world. And he doesn’t just say that himself, people say that about him. The real me is Bryan Danielson. I was trying to fit into what they want me to be but that’s not me. Bryan Danielson is the real me. I want to be in WWE and I never said I wanted to be off WWE NXT. I just said who I thought should be kicked off and it was Daniel Bryan. But Bryan Danielson’s dream is Main Event WrestleMania and to do that he’s got to be in WWE. I want to be the best and you’re not getting that on WWE NXT doing monkey bar challenges and drinking soda. Daniel Bryan was all right. He was a good guy. He was nice, friendly, you know. Bryan Danielson is a little bit meaner he’s got more of a dark side. So we’ll see.”
