Daniel Bryan Talks About His Plan To Steal The Show At WrestleMania

This week’s sitdown interview with Michael Cole features Daniel Bryan, as seen above. Below are highlights:

* Bryan says he feels good going into the Intercontinental Title Ladder Match at WrestleMania 31. Bryan said 7 of the hungriest WWE Superstars will be fighting for the title and he’s a little concerned about his neck. Bryan says he’s been getting better and better but the ladder match puts him in a situation that he hasn’t been in since surgery. Bryan says he’s come to peace with it and whatever happens, happens.

* Bryan says he’s used to having large obstacles in his matches and the ladders are no different. Bryan talked about how anything can happen with guys like Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler and Luke Harper in the match. Bryan says you have to expect the unexpected and expect that the match will be crazy.

* Bryan talked about never holding the Intercontinental Title and that being the only title in WWE he hasn’t held. He says the people he looked up to when he was a kid were the Intercontinental Champions who stole the show at WrestleManias like Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat, Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon, Bret Hart and Roddy Piper. Bryan says he doesn’t want people to be talking about Sting, Brock Lesnar or The Undertaker after WrestleMania, he wants them to be talking about the ladder match.

* Bryan says he will do just about anything he can physically do to win the title on Sunday. Bryan predicts he’s going to win and hopes that’s how any of the other competitors would predict the match. Bryan believes he will walk out of WrestleMania 31 as Intercontinental Champion with 70,000 people chanting “yes!” after the match.
