[@Isfrael]

Sucks that they don't get along, they both seem like such nice guys.

[@taipeistreetroaming]

gotta love bryan. such a real dude. and it sounds promising to hear he still has creative plans for his future and isn't just going to rest on his laurels.

[@RedyPiper]

So down to earth. Been a wrestling fan for 35 years. He’s one of a kind.

[@etrainH11]

Its gonna be a good match, miz has this year alone improved in ring immensely, and DBry is a legend

[@willnelson9906]

i can understand why DBryan and Miz dont like each other, their paths are so different

[@SirFooplesTheThird]

Whereas Bryan is a pro wrestler. Miz is an entertainer. Bryan is a painter, Miz is a rockstar

[@xneobloodchaosx7875]

This is not even for promotional purposes he genuinely doesn't like the miz but professional enough to stay within character

[@anxofernandez3344]

The Miz vs Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania 35 in New York...I can dig that. It'd be a pretty damn good story, especially if Miz wins Money in the Bank, cashes in on someone loved like AJ Styles and then keeps retaining via DQs and countouts and what not. The Miz with Marysse by his side, both at their smarmiest, getting massive heat...and Daniel Bryan, Iron Man and winner of the Royal Rumble, with Brie by his side as the beloved babyface couple. The ultimate underdog against the ultimate opportunist, the pure wrestler against the talker, the common man vs the pretend movie star. It'd be such a good story...and I'm sure the match would be good in terms of mechanics and amazing in terms of storytelling.

[@WickedxWonka]

Yeah wow not that I needed to be, but you really sold me on this match lol

[@NicoSleepyLeen]

"Oh these guys don't like each other, lets make them work together for months" That's some Vince Mcmahon level stuff

[@SwagJuice11]

Can we get some better lighting/quality. D Bryan looking kinda old here lol. Great stuff though!

[@joepenny9899]

How can he say The Miz is only good on the mic, when he had a better match than him at Backlash.

[@dbone3356]

El Vagabundo He also had a better opponent. Also never said that he was *only* good at talking...

[@joepenny9899]

D Bone It takes two to tango

[@dbone3356]

El Vagabundo Exactly.

[@alexbooker7767]

El Vagabundo you just contradicted yourself lol

[@lewisgriffin9684]

El Vagabundo that is only because the Miz was working or Seth Rollins this is not a good wrestler Miss will be the first one to tell you his strength is talking Daniel Bryan is a hundred times better wrestler than the Miz that's why they put him in there with guys you can trust me to get the most out of them you will never see Miss vs Big Cass cuz Miss can't get nothing out of big Cass if you put Daniel Bryant in there with Seth Rollins and it would have been better than the death row in The Miz match guaranteed

[@MickeyProllem-ox4cr]

Daniel vs AJ Daniel vs Samoa Joe Daniel vs Nakamura Daniel vs Cien Almas ALL COULD MAIN EVENT MANIA

[@adventband6846]

thats a reach

[@pcpc9710]

Haha. They could main event WWE superstars 😂😂😂😂😂

[@carlDJS]

Damn so Bryan and Miz legit dislike each other lolaw

[@steelertalk]

I agreed that they hated each other I think that wwe should book this match I made up it is a retirement match

[@AgeofJP]

It's one-sided...Miz has no ill will against Bryan, he legitemately felt sorry for his outburst but both of them knew it was gold. For Miz it's like the Kevin Owens vs Rene Young thing where he's just so good at mocking Bryan that he keeps doing it. And I get the feeling from Bryan that he just doesn't see Miz on the same level and looks down on him, it's a shame if you ask me

[@saswatmohanty3048]

Listen the channel's.. name is inside the ropes.. and as we can see. There are wwe .. logos behind.. daniel.. which kinda makes it like a wwe interview so.. basically daniel bryan is still in his character.. miz and bryan.. respect each other.. in real life.. and miz is a good guy in real life..

[@conor-_C]

Saswat Mohanty he said he respect him

[@dean8705]

Nah they legit hate each other

[@Scrotum_69420]

Just because you hate someone doesn't mean you cant reapect them... It's called being an adult.

[@MACsDaddyNotYours]

When WWE blows their wad on this & books it for survivor series I won't be surprised

[@redrufuss]

Maryse and Bri don't like each other irl? ...news to ME 2:45

[@ccrz77]

RedRufus that total divas storyline was taken from real events and Maryse’s actual feelings

[@jamiedale5070]

They had a very big fall out

[@JamalTheTitan]

Yeah, The Bellas terrorized the divas back in the day. Maria hates em too.

[@adriansotolopez4849]

So Miz and Bryan really don’t like each other?

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

I knew it miz and Bryan don't like one another

[@kingraygonthechamp]

I bet everyone wanted to beat the heck out of Miz.

[@advaldez92]

I guarantee you Bryan throws one punch and he’ll get injured. He can’t even hold Miz’s jock!

[@shellbacksclub]

wish he would've asked "are u going to resign?"!

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

Seswest miiz and bryan dont like each oth er legit you are wrong

[@ShockerTopper]

I don't know why...but Daniel Bryan is looking pretty old these days. Maybe it's having a kid? Oh boy...I hope I don't start aging fast once I am able to start raising my daughter in a few months.

[@InsideTheRopes]

Maybe it was our lighting, it wasn't great for this interview.

[@dean8705]

Maybe you shouldn't be so superficial. He looks fine.

[@MakePeopleMadForFun]

Punch the miz for what? For saying some real shit? Should of been on the indies instead of waiting for wwe to let him wrestle.

[@michaelallanrubin2376]

Bryan and miz didnt get along

[@YousefTube]

"We don't like each other but I respect him" what's the point?

[@marwaneouad6804]

lol they worked with each other since bryan was in nxt, and did a great match at NOC when bryan beat him for the US title, and they did continue to work with each other, i don't think they hate each other, it's just for the promo of the match.

MJF has surpassed miz he lives it that what makes him better then miz

[@flamingored960]

MJF never hold a candle to the MIZ. MJF has all the freedom while the MIZ has to follow a formula and excels at it. MJF level is at the minor league while the MIZ is at the major league in promos
