6 More Bizarre WWE Coincidences

1. Chris Benoit & Daniel Bryan

And speaking of Daniel Bryan, the parallels between himself and Chris Benoit are downright creepy.

For simple starters, the two have an automatic link given that Bryan & Benoit are widely considered the best technically gifted wrestler of their respective generation. Each man was unfairly looked at with hesitation by WWE due to their smaller stature, despite both their talents & the fact that they had wrestling experience across the world across multiple promotions.

The coincidences become a bit freakier when evaluating their crowning achievements. Both men competed in triple-threat WrestleMania main events that took place at X 'Manias. Both of their opponents during the night were Triple H & close buddies of his, and at some point in each main event the underdogs would be taken out of action from a 2-on-1 move through the announcer's desk. 'Toothless Aggression' & 'Goat Face' would each prevail however, tapping someone out with a cross-face variation and ending off the pay-per-views with confetti-filled celebration.

Unfortunately, both men would also have major problems related to concussions, with Bryan being forced to retire for a few years & Benoit's brain resembling that of an 80-year-old Alzheimer's patient during his autopsy.

Please keep yourself safe, Daniel.
