Original Plans For Daniel Bryan At Survivor Series

Last week was huge for Daniel Bryan, as he defeated AJ Styles to win the WWE Championship on SmackDown Live, and he ended up going on to face Brock Lesnar in the main event at Survivor Series.

Bryan has been going through a character change as of late, and when Daniel Bryan was asked for his thoughts on his match with Brock Lesnar prior to the main event, he said nothing as he looked at Kayla Braxton and then walked away.

According to rajah.com, the original script called for Bryan to give an interview saying something along the lines of:

“I can understand why you and so many others are calling my victory against AJ Styles ‘shocking,’ seeing as I wasn’t even supposed to face AJ last week, or Brock tonight. But, then again, isn’t that the great thing about life? The fact that on any given day, we all have the opportunity to make history? Just like how I intend to make history again tonight when I defeat ‘The Beast’, Brock Lesnar. It’s like I always say, fight for your dreams, and your dreams will fight for you.”

Kayla Braxton then would have followed up and asked:

“Forgive me, but doesn’t that message seem at odds with how you won the WWE Championship, particularly the low blow behind the referee’s back, followed by a post-match beat-down?”

Bryan was then supposed to respond with, ““Now, that is a very good question.”

At this point it’s not known why the original plans were changed.
