Sean Waltman Talks Vince McMahon Pushing Bigger Wrestlers, Daniel Bryan Bret Hart and More

Sean Waltman recently spoke to WrestleTalk TV about his career and more. During the interview he mentioned how bigger wrestlers are the type of stars that catch Vince McMahon’s attention and how that makes it challenging for guys like Daniel Bryan to break through.

“I went through a lot of the same things. It’s a personal thing. You can’t fault somebody for having perfect personal preference. What did it for Vince was a big guy with a great physique, clean cut. He’s had to let this thing go, but Vince hates tattoos.”

He also compared Daniel Bryan to Bret Hart saying:

“It kind of reminds me of Bret a little bit. Bret was always Vince’s standby guy. When he went with Lex Luger, that didn’t pan out. Part of it wasn’t Lex’s fault. When you put a guy in red, white and blue and put him on a bus and say ‘this is our guy!’ No it’s not! That always fell back on Bret. I would resent that, like I’m the second choice all the time. Good ol’ standy Bret will always be there. Kind of like Daniel, cause Daniel is smaller. They’re forced to listen to the people.”
