Bryan also talked a little bit about his time working in the original NXT.
“When I was on NXT, it wasn’t the NXT that it is now. It is stupid when I was in. They had me doing monkey bar challenges. We were drinking soda in one of the episodes as a challenge, and I don’t drink carbonated beverages. A minute of live television was me trying to drink this big gulp of soda.”
“Going from independence to NXT didn’t feel like a big step up, but going from that to Summerslam to RAW felt like a huge step up, especially the pressure of live television, knowing that millions of people are watching you. That pressure can get to you.”
