Bryan Danielson On Bullying People Backstage In AEW

Bryan Danielson isn’t just intense in the ring as it appears that he displays a similar intensity backstage in AEW. The former WWE Champion recently joined the My Mom’s Basement podcast where he explained that he likes to bully people who are bigger than him such as Paul Wight.

“He initially tries to bully me, and I stand up for myself. I do bully other people. Sometimes giants. Only occasionally giants. I come in hot. When I come into the locker room, I come in hot. I’m not coming in there to be soft on these guys. I come in and everybody is on their phone, I’m going to yell at them. Sometimes, I’ll be on the training table and Paul will come up and grab me in some sort of way and I’ll immediately, as fast as I can, try to armbar him. That does happen.

Not that he’s a giant, but I am constantly trying to takedown Jake Hager. He’s got a (amateur wrestling and MMA) background. It’s not like I’m trying to single leg Brandon Cutler all the time. I don’t know anything about his single leg defense, but it’s not like I see him, he’s walking down the hall, and I’m going to double leg this guy. That’s not my deal. I’m going for the big guys.”

Bryan Danielson sat on the sidelines for the last few months after suffering an injury during the Anarchy in the Arena match at Double or Nothing back in May. He returned to the ring this week on Dynamite, but unfortunately for him it was Daniel Garcia who picked up the win after Jake Hager interfered.
