WWE's Daniel Bryan Heaps Praise On All In
Says show is "incredible and inspiring."
Rather intriguingly, current WWE superstar and former indie darling Daniel Bryan has been moved to praise the upcoming All In event just hours before the show kicks off in Chicago this evening.
Bryan, a star of Ring Of Honor before his move to Stamford in 2009, took to Twitter to lavish Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks with compliments for what they've achieved over this weekend.
"What [Cody and The Bucks] have done to create a groundswell in the wrestling community is both incredible and inspiring," Bryan stated. "Not only is it great for the fans but also for wrestlers and the industry as a whole."
The comments are particularly interesting given Bryan's employers are generally keen to emphasise to the wider world that they are not just the biggest wrestling brand, but the only wrestling brand. One of their most popular stars praising a rival independent venture - one promoted by an ex-superstar who left in bitter circumstances - is unlikely to please those in head office.
Bryan was originally rumoured to be involved in Saturday's show, before WWE eventually cleared him to wrestle to avoid such an eventuality. As of yet, there is no word on whether the Seattle native has signed a new contract with the group. His current deal was due to expire today.
