- From the moment they told him No, he was on a mission to turn that no into a YES. I can’t wait for you all to hear his journey to this moment…his dedication, his mission and his passion. My daughter is lucky to have a Daddy who never gives up and who’s truly an amazing role model. I love you @bryanldanielson so happy that you’re back at the place you love, your home away from home…the squared circle. #YesYesYes #WWE #Wrestling #AmericanDragon
John Cena, notional brother-in-law, on social media has been mum on Daniel Bryan, but did post this within last hour:

Alrighty then. Hmmm.
UPDATE:
TMZ caught up with John Cena and he had kind words for Daniel Bryan’s in-ring return. You can see the video here. A snippet of Cena’s comments:
- “He worked his ass off to make that happen. It is what he was born to do … he’s back where he belongs.”
Ok, THAT’S more like it.
