Bryan Danielson managed to sneak some NSFW lines past the WWE censors during his time in the company.
The former WWE Champion has always toed the line on what he can and can’t say. He famously talked about “fisting” with Renee Young on Talking Smack, and in recent years has discussed how eating apples is like eating tree semen.
The American Dragon has always reveled in saying things he shouldn’t say. That was even more apparent when he managed to ask his colleagues to fist him on TV during the pandemic.
Bryan Danielson spoke with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes ahead of AEW All In. The new AEW Champion recalled some things in WWE that he was really proud to get to say on TV.
He mentioned the famous episode of Saturday Morning Slam where he talked about bears the entire time. Danielson also spoke about getting “First me boys” on TV during the pandemic.
This was in a backstage segment with Kevin Owens and the Street Profits. The line made Kevin Owens spit out his drink, and showed the less-serious side of Bryan Danielson’s character.
“There’s a couple things actually that I’m really proud of that I even got through the many layers of things that you have to get through in WWE. One of the things, I did commentary on a Saturday Morning Slam, and it was Claudio wrestling R-Truth. I just talked about bears the whole time, and then Claudio knew. I told Claudio about it and so they did the bear hug and all that kind of stuff. So yeah, that was a blast.” Bryan Danielson said.
“In the pandemic, I got ‘Fist me boys!’ on TV. It was a live shot and it was with The Street Profits and I think Kevin Owens. We just did something. We’re all good guys, and in my head I’m thinking I’m the old, uncool guy. The Street Profits, both of them are legitimately super cool dudes, so much fun to be around, right? I come to the back, we’ve got this live shot, and we’re just excited about winning. Then at the end of it, I just go ‘Okay, fist me boys!’”
