Question: what is Daniel Bryan's favourite wrestling moment? Winning the WWE Title at WrestleMania XXX perhaps? How about returning to the ring in front of 78,000 screaming fans in New Orleans for 'Mania 34 this past spring? Or, maybe it's something from his tireless days putting ROH on the map?

Nope, nope and nope. It's none of those.

Bryan told BrandonDoesEverything on YouTube that his fave wrestling memory wasn't actually supposed to involve him at all. On the 9 December 2013 episode of Raw, Bryan entered the ring with a gang of other legends and roster members. They were all there for a 'Championship Ascension Showdown' between John Cena and Randy Orton.

That was it, but fans in Seattle decided to rebel and chant for Daniel. That touched the bearded hero, and it made him an unlikely focal point for the segment. Just look at Stephanie McMahon's unhappy face in the pic above.
