WWE has issued the following:
In light of the recent campaign started by Ellen asking people to dance to raise awareness for pediatric cancer under the hashtag #JustKeepDancing, below is a video of WWE Superstar Daniel Bryan supporting the cause. As I am sure you have seen, Ellen started the campaign after having 6 year old brain cancer patient Braylon Beam on her show who gets through his chemo therapy and tough days by dancing.
WWE and Daniel Bryan are strong supporters of pediatric cancer with Connor’s Cure. (more info below) Additionally WWE will be “going gold” for the month of September to raise awareness for pediatric cancer. WWE will donate $1.00 (up to a total of $75,000.00) to the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation to benefit Connor’s Cure for every updated twitter profile picture that “goes gold.”

Connor’s Cure Info:
Stephanie McMahon, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, WWE and its fans are strong supporters of pediatric cancer care and research at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC. Stephanie and Paul became involved with Children’s Hospital in 2014, when they met WWE fan Connor Michalek. Connor, 8, was battling medulloblastoma, a rare tumor that affects the brain and spinal cord. Connor formed a special connection with Stephanie and Paul and many WWE Superstars and Divas. When Connor lost his battle with medulloblastoma in April 2014, Stephanie and Paul decided to honor him by creating Connor’s Cure, a fund within Children’s Foundation at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh that supports brain tumor research. To date, Connor’s Cure has raised more than $630,000 and has been supported by WWE and fans all over the world.
