Daniel Bryan Reacts to Hulk Hogan Comments, MVP, Matt Hardy and The Iron Sheik All Weigh-In on the Situation

July 24, 2015

Daniel Bryan has been making media rounds this week to promote his new book “Yes! My Improbable Journey to the Main Event of WrestleMania”, and during an appearance on 105.3 The Fan today, Bryan was asked about the current Hulk Hogan situation. Bryan had the following to say:

“I’ve never seen that side of him and it’s crazy, all this stuff. The first time I heard about it was an interview about 20 minutes ago, because I’ve been doing book-signing stuff like all day.”

“I got back to my hotel room at about 10-or-11-o’clock last night, and I woke up this morning just in time to start doing phoners. Everyone is like, ‘Hey! What do you think about this thing with Hulk Hogan?’ I’m like, ‘Wait, what thing? What are you talking about?’ I had no idea. So, yeah, not in any of my dealings with him.”

Other pro wrestling stars have weighed-in on the situation by Tweeting the following:

Truth be told, I’m not shocked. I’m sure there are many icons that would disgust you for a number of reasons if you knew their secrets.

MY TAKE-It’s NEVER appropriate the use the N word now..In any context. It’s probably the most offensive word in the current English lexicon.
