Daniel Bryan Talks Hell in a Cell, the WWE Championship, and More

Former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan recently sat down with Jim Varsallone of the Miami Herald. During the interview, Bryan talks about his WWE career, the WWE Championship, prosing to Brie Bella, Hell in a Cell, and much more.

On working for the WWE (MH):

“It’s been a lot of fun, and it’s just surreal. It feels like yesterday I was wrestling at the armories in front of 200, 300 people. Now being in these big stories in WWE and main eventing pay-per-views, I’ve main evented every show I’ve been on the last two months, it’s pretty surreal, and to do it in front of large crowds on such big shows, it’s awesome.” (Daniel Bryan)

On proposing to Brie Bella and occassionally appearing on Total Divas: 

“Oh, I was way more nervous to pop the question [than performing at WrestleMania], way more nervous to pop the question. You would think it would be the opposite, in front of 70,000 people, going out there in your spandex, but absolutely not. Popping the question was way more nerve-wracking.

[Being on Total Divas] That’s been a little bit stranger than anything else because I never had any interest in reality television. It’s something that kind of fell into my lap because of who I’m with [Total Divas star Brie Bella]. I’m very fortunate, actually, because mostly they follow around Brie, and I just happen to be a bystander who occasionally gets filmed.”

On Hell in a Cell in Miami and what it would be like for Bryan to face Triple H in a HIAC Match: 

“Hell in a Cell is one of the most brutal matches that you can do in WWE. I’ve never been in one. So I’m going to go out there and do it once and probably only once [Bryan chuckles]. I don’t think most of the guys who’ve been in Hell in a Cell matches ever really want to go do it again. A lot of times the top guys end up doing multiple Hell in a Cell matches, but they’re [rough]. Every WWE superstar does want to do it once just to experience it.

“It would be awesome [to wrestle Triple H in a HIAC Match]. I want to get my hands on Triple H just as much as I want to get my hands on Randy Orton and prove behind a shadow of a doubt that even though I’m not what they want as the face of the company that I belong where I’m at, that i belong at the top and that I’m as good as anybody else on the show.”
