Daniel Bryan Reportedly Wanted To Be Heel For A Long Time

Daniel Bryan beat AJ Styles for the WWE Championship on Smackdown Live, when he hit a low blow on Styles and finished him with his running knee. Thus he became a heel. According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan had been wanting to be a heel for a while now.

This is what he said:

“So it is a complicated story but Daniel Bryan himself has been pushing the idea of going heel just because his booking as a babyface with The Miz was counterproductive. It’s amazing to me that he came back in March and here we are in November and obviously, he made this choice some time back — not a long time back but weeks back — that he had to go heel.”

“So that was [Daniel’s] call, well, in the end, it was Vince’s call. So that was something that he wanted to do that had not been approved.”

With things changed up now, we have to wait and see how Daniel Bryan does as WWE Champion.
