Daniel Bryan News: Thoughts On WWE Push, Politics, Abrupt End To Wyatt/Heel Storyline

News

Daniel Bryan did an interview with WGRD 97.9 radio, here are some highlights…

on his WWE push
To this day, even with the loud fan reactions that I get, I feel like the company still doesn’t see money in me. It’s just interesting because you go out there and do your best. And, sometimes it can be very, very frustrating. This is not an objective business. It’s not like football… It is, ‘Well, he’s getting a great reaction, but is he actually selling tickets?’ I can get the crowd to react very loudly, but does that translate into people buying PPVs? Or, ‘Oh, he might have a niche appeal.’ To me, none of that matters. I just go out there and do my best.

on his frustration, attitude towards politics
Sometimes it’s been frustrating just dealing with the political type stuff. I’ve never been a politician. My whole career, I’m pretty easy-going. As far as being successful in WWE, that’s probably my biggest downfall

on WWE ending heel/Wyatt storyline due to YES chants on ESPN
Nobody ever had that discussion with me. To me – it’s interesting – I just go out there and do the best I can. But, I certainly think it played a part in it
