As the ultimate underdog, Daniel Bryan saw his popularity in WWE soar to giant proportions. Fans desperately wanted the likeable Washington native to reach the highest limits of the business, but based on his constantly detrimental booking it appeared nothing more than a dream.

Similarly affable, there was virtually no-one who wished anything but success for the avuncular Claudio Ranieri in his pursuit of Leicester City's own 'impossible dream'.

In the end, the pair both achieved the improbable, Bryan hoisting the WWE title at WrestleMania XXX, and Leicester becoming Premier League champions against all the odds.

Heart, fight, style, and spirit. Bryan has all the attributes that define him as a Fox.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
