Featured above and below are brand new videos from our friends at Ringside Collectibles, showcasing Smackdown general manager Daniel Bryan and Raw brand Superstar Finn Balor showing off his upcoming ‘Balor Club’ and ‘Demon King’ Elite action figures.
Here are a few quotes from Daniel Bryan’s interview at Ringside Fest 2016.
On his children wanting to become WWE Superstars:
“I just want my children to follow their dreams, regardless of what that is. I think that was the great thing about my parents. My parents weren’t wrestling fans, but I loved wrestling, and when I said I wanted to be a wrestler they were 100% supportive. And so for our children, that’s what I want too. Whatever they want to do, whether it be being a professional wrestler, whether they want to work for NASA, or if they want to be the president of the United States – not that anyone would ever want that job.”
Who he would draft from NXT:
“That’s really, really tough. I would love to have Nakamura, just because I roomed with him for a short time. I’ve known him for a long time. And Samoa Joe, because I’ve known him for a long time too. There are so many great people down there. The women’s champion Asuka is really good. I love Austin Aries. Bobby Roode’s really good.”
The coolest part about being the Smackdown GM:
“I think it’s just being around the guys. It’s hard when you retire, and you’ve been doing it as long as I have. My full adult life I’ve been wrestling, and on the road, and being around these guys. When you retire and you’re not around that anymore you’re just sucked out of a vacuum, out of the people you’ve known for a very long time. That’s been the really cool part, just being around the other Superstars and that sort of thing.”
