Bryan Danielson’s accolades as a professional wrestler certainly need no introduction, as they proved to be one of the best in the business. He spent several years working in WWE as one of their top stars and towards the end of his run, Bryan Danielson was even part of WWE Creative. Danielson also reflected on his final match in WWE against Roman Reigns.
The former WWE Champion had a terrific run in Vince McMahon’s company. He went on to become one of the most beloved babyfaces in the company’s history and won several world titles during his time there.
Danielson had his last match against Roman Reigns on an episode of Friday Night SmackDown. In the end, The Tribal Chief won the match. While speaking on “My Mom’s Basement with Robbie Fox,” Bryan Danielson reflected on the match. Danielson stated that he believes the match was the perfect way to go out of WWE.
“The one unique experience at WrestleMania [37] where it was just like, ‘Woah, this feels empty.’ Ironically, my last match in WWE with Roman, I was pumped for. I loved it, and it was in the Thunderdome. It was a bunch of screams and canned-down noises and stuff, and I was, ‘This is great! I love this,’ and like, I honestly thought that’s a perfect way to go out.
Because I also wasn’t sure if I was even going sign with AEW. I was debating back and forth, but I was also debating on just kind of — I don’t want to say hanging it up, but just stop doing it full time and focus more on being a dad.”
Bryan Danielson recently lost to Daniel Garcia after some help from Jake Hager. We will have to wait and see how he will be booked in the coming weeks for everyone involved.
