Former WWE Champion Never Dreamt of Working for Vince McMahon or Main Eventing WrestleMania

Bryan Danielson has become a household name in the wrestling world now. Bryan spent most of his time in WWE before he made the switch to AEW last month. Over the years in WWE, Bryan has not only won many championships but also earned himself an enormous fan base.

He won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 30 by defeating Randy Orton and Batista. But unfortunately for Bryan, he was not victorious in the main event of WrestleMania 37, where he fought Edge and Roman Reigns.

However, recently in an interview with 6abc, Bryan Danielson claimed his dream was not to main event WrestleMania but to be a big star in Japan.

He said, “My dream when I started wrestling was not to be in WWE and to main event WrestleMania or anything like that; my dream when I started wrestling was to actually to be a big star in Japan because I loved the Japanese wrestling style which is very wrestling-based.”

Bryan also revealed that he also liked the idea because he feared public speaking.

“I loved the idea of being able to go to Japan- you could be mildly famous over there, and then come back and nobody would know who you are, and I loved that idea,” Bryan added.

But unfortunately for Bryan, that did not happen. Now, Bryan looks delighted with his move to AEW and feels ready for the challenges that lie ahead.

Will Bryan Danielson be successful in AEW?

AEW has now become a platform for many former WWE superstars to shine. Recently, we also saw Bryan Danielson make his debut in AEW. Bryan shocked the wrestling world after he made the switch from WWE to AEW.

Bryan made his in-ring AEW debut at AEW Grand Slam last month against AEW World Champion Kenny Omega. There was a lot of hype built around this match as it was Bryan’s first match in AEW. Also, the fact that he was going up against the AEW World Champion added more excitement to it.

Bryan and Omega did not disappoint as the two superstars displayed a grand spectacle of wrestling. It proved to be a hard-hitting and brutal match.

However, to the disappointment of the fans, the match ended in a time-limit draw after neither superstar won the match in 30 minutes.

Since then, Bryan has been looking for a rematch with Kenny Omega. But the AEW World Champion has been reluctant to agree to the rematch.
