10 Unbelievable Lookalikes That Will Ruin Wrestling For You

8. Daniel Bryan Is Roberts Blossom

Is Daniel Bryan the best human being to have ever lived?

Think about it. Do some deep thinking. He is an incredible, genius professional wrestler who brushed off toxic, counterproductive booking with the patience and grace of Mahatma f*cking Ghandi. A committed, devoted family man, and possibly the one father on this planet who can stomach to wash the sh*t out of a cloth diaper because he is better than all of us, he is also, of course, an environmentalist and socialist who refused to travel to Saudi Arabia on moral grounds. At the start of 2018, with his dreams crushed, he found himself in a dark place. He ended that year having wrestled his dream match as the best all-round sports entertainer on the planet. It could not have happened to a nicer guy.

And yet.

This advanced human being hides in plain sight underneath a villainous facade. He delivers a crucial message too aggressively, too accusatory, for it to resonate. He is inherently good, but we don't see him as good. This much is true of Home Alone's Marley, a terrifying, craggy old man who, in the end, comes to the aid of Kevin McCallister.

Tenuous as sh*t, this one, but we just wanted to put D-Bry over, really. He's amazing. Also he looks like Roberts Blossom.
