Daniel Bryan Talks Wanting John Cena To Turn Heel, New Day, Kurt Angle In WWE, Funny CM Punk Story
As noted, Daniel Bryan is in Dubai, UAE to promote WWE 2K16. Bryan was interviewed by Myles of 104.4 Virgin Radio Dubai, below are some highlights:
- He wished John Cena was a heel and said that he would love it. He pointed out to Hulk Hogan's heel turn in 1996 and how it turned wrestling around. He noted that heels do get cheered a lot now, so it's hard to tell. He talked about liking the New Day as heels, but at the same time, he can't help but love them and cheer for them because they're so much fun to watch. He said his favorite wrestler to watch in WWE is Cesaro, but his favorite act is the New Day. He said that he pretty much loves everything that the New Day is doing and said that they are putting out some "amazingly entertaining stuff" right now.
- When asked if he can see Kurt Angle back in WWE, Bryan admitted that he doesn't know the issue between Angle and WWE. He would love to see Angle return for one final sendoff at WrestleMania. He noted that Angle vs. Seth Rollins or Angle vs. Roman Reigns would be awesome.
- He told a funny story about doing a run in in Russia with CM Punk when the Wyatts were attacking someone. Punk and Bryan chased off the Wyatts, and Punk proceeded to ask Bryan if he wanted to fight the Wyatts right now, setting Bryan up to reply "Yes!!!!" Instead, Bryan responded, "Yeah!" and Punk replied, "you're an idiot."
Bryan also talked about if he will be in action at WrestleMania 32, which heel he thinks would make a good babyface, acting like he was drinking a beer in the WWE 2K16 commercial with Arnold Schwarzenegger despite never having a sip of alcohol in his life, being in Dubai, teaming with Brie against John Cena and Nikki, promoting WWE 2K16 despite not playing video games or owning a television and more.
