2010 WWE Summer Slam PPV - Daniel Bryan Returns
The name Daniel Bryan was a footnote, relegated to Internet message boards and obscure wrestling trivia. After all, the season one WWE NXT Rookie had been betrayed and attacked by his fellow Rookies – The Nexus – and remained forgotten in the wake of the group’s carnage. But now, Bryan is a man no one in WWE will ever forget. For it was he who joined Team WWE as their seventh man, helped dismantle The Nexus in an unforgettable 7-on-7 Elimination Tag Team Match and likely helped save Monday Night Raw. …

I think my actions were unprofessional and I’d do them all over again. You can only be pushed so much before you get to that breaking point, you know, and at some point you need to stand up for yourself. And if an announcer feels like he has free reign to bury you at every opportunity, you have to make him accountable for what he says.

Now, Bryan has joined the cast of WWE NXT as the most experienced of any of the NXT Rookies, and is an internet favorite in the competition. But nothing is ever easy, as the competitor found out on the debut episode of WWE NXT, clashing with his WWE Pro, The Miz, and putting his body on the line in a match against World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho.
WWE.com’s Aubrey Sitterson caught up with Bryan to discuss his mentor, his fellow NXT Rookies, and the differences between competing in the independents and squaring off against the best WWE has to offer.

Quick Thoughts On WWE NXT
The WWE managed to pull it off. I like the show. It is different. Even the camera work and lighting are different. I’ll be watching next week.
Getting to watch Daniel Bryan take on Chris Jericho was the highlight of the night. A good showing for both. Including one OMG moment. The heat between the Miz and Bryan is a story line worth watching.
What was up with Michale Cole during the Jericho/Bryan match? Are they purposely making him the heal announcer? Well it worked. It made him sound like a complete tool by ranting on about Bryan.
How about the reaction (or the lack there of) by CM Punk to Darren Young. Young was all like I so stoked to be here, let’s do it, did I mention I’m stoked. And CM Punk was all deadpan and Rasputin like. Perfect.
David Otunga is one to watch. Out of all the promos during the night, his was the one that showed the most personality. He looked good in the ring too, even though the match was really short.
Wondering what Wade Barrett will be like in the ring. He’s got a look. He’s got a kind of British Sylvester Stallone kind of thing going.
AND we get to see Christian on Tuesday once more. Win.
Well I’m off to go read the reviews from the trusted and the dirtsheets. Let’s see if there is any common ground between them.

The most experienced of any NXT Rookie, Daniel Bryan is mentored by current United States and Unified Tag Team Champion The Miz. Love him or hate him, in addition to his considerable in-ring experience, the self-proclaimed “Awesome One” also possesses an undeniable charisma from which any Superstar could stand to learn a few things.
