6 Signs Daniel Bryan Will Follow CM Punk And Quit WWE

4. Bryan & Punk Are Not Your Prototypical WWE Stars

Over the years, Vince McMahon has created hundreds of WWE Superstars. It's no secret that McMahon favors the heavyweights, the giants and 300 pounders. Guys like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and Rusev fit this WWE look that Vince McMahon favors, and the success has shown. Now go back again to last year's Royal Rumble, where Batista returned and won the rumble match over a guy like CM Punk. This past Sunday we saw Roman Reigns win the rumble over a guy like Daniel Bryan. Do we see a pattern developing? The 6'5", near 300 pound ripped physiques were victorious and "pushed" over the shorter and smaller wrestlers. Guys like Roman Reigns and Batista are home grown WWE guys, and have the backing of Vince McMahon. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan are the exact opposite of this. These are guys that had to travel the indy circuit all over the world in hopes of the WWE noticing them. Even once they were noticed and signed by the WWE, they still had to fight to get what they wanted in the WWE. If it wasn't for a Pipe Bomb or a Yes Movement, it's hard to imagine the WWE fully behind either of these guys.
