Daniel Bryan was recently interviewed by Sports Illustrated as a part of their “Extra Mustard” series. He discussed a number of topics, including who he would like to wrestle, should he ever make a return to the ring.

Below are some highlights from the interview:

On who he would like to wrestle:

“One of my favorite guys to watch at WWE is AJ Styles,” said Bryan. “So, on the WWE stage, I would like to wrestle AJ Styles, only because I wrestled John Cena before.”

“I was really disappointed I never got to wrestle Shawn Michaels,” said Bryan. “He trained me and that was the one match I never got to have.”

On being in the main event of WrestleMania 30:

“I spent ten years honing my craft all around the world, then WWE hired me, they fired me, and hired me again,” said Bryan. “The climb to the top of being champion for me was very long, but it was rewarding. I loved being champion, I thought it was the coolest thing.

“The only thing that wasn’t cool was traveling with the championship title through TSA. Once they see the belt, it’s the same kind of thing as before when they’ll say, ‘You’re a wrestling champion?’ At least I had the title to prove it, that part was very validating.”

On who would be the best main roster prospect from NXT:

“It’s hard to pick one person, but I really like Drew Galloway,” said Bryan. “Drew was let go by WWE, but he went out on his own and made a name for himself by wrestling his butt off all over the world.”

They also discuss animals, his favorite match that he wasn’t a part of, and more.
