20 Most Iconic WWE Wrestlers Of All Time

18. Daniel Bryan

Whether Daniel Bryan ever wrestles again, we'll have to wait and see. Either way, his impact on the WWE has been absolutely phenomenal. If Bryan's in-ring career is indeed over (which hopefully it's not), his 6-year stay in Vince McMahon's organisation saw him become one of the hottest performers of the past 15 years. What makes Daniel Bryan's story even more iconic is that it was never supposed to happen. With WWE management seemingly against pulling the trigger and giving Bryan the ball to run with, it was the connection with the fans that caused D-Bry to soar to the heights of a WrestleMania main event WWE Championship win, going through Triple H, Batista and Randy Orton on the same night in a move that was the biggest WWE underdog story of all time. Yes, Bryan is a master craftsman inside the ring, but it's his unique and magnetic connection to the fans that truly give the former American Dragon iconic status. Here's hoping there's plenty more years of Bryan's in-ring career to come.
