They say that some men are destined for greatness, but there is an argument to be made that Daniel Bryan is one of the few who was literally chosen for it. First, by the WWE Universe, and then, by himself.

After years as a scrappy underdog so beloved by fans that they launched a “Yes!” movement (inspired by his signature chants) to catapult him to the main event of WrestleMania, Bryan put an end to that revolution and reinvented himself as a merciless, environmentally conscious tapout machine following a near-miraculous recovery from a three-year injury-induced retirement.

Whether it’s the “old” Daniel Bryan or the “new” Daniel Bryan, the man himself is a force to be reckoned with. Bryan is a Grand Slam Champion in WWE and holds the longest single-recorded stint in a Royal Rumble Match. Bryan is also surgical on the mat, with a near-bottomless arsenal of intricate submissions, blistering strikes and basic, but effective, maneuvers that can put opponents away just as quickly.
