After this interesting revealation from the leader of the Yes Movement, Dwayne decided to respond. In a hilarious spirit, he accepted the challenge and even offered to job against Bryan.

Notably, Brie Bella and Daniel Bryan recently welcomed a baby boy into their family. Bryan and Brie already have a three year old daughter named Birdie, who’s quite popular on social media

Coming to The Rock, the people’s champion is a father to three daughters. While his eldest in a teenager now, the other too are still pretty young at four and two years old.

The Rock and Daniel Bryan have collided in the past

If you refresh your memory, The Rock and Daniel Bryan once had a pretty fun encounter in the ring. This was before Bryan became the heartbeat of the WWE Universe and was still used as a comedy act.

He was in an on-screen relationship with AJ Lee who used to portray a wild and unpredictable character. WWE decided to screen a marriage between Bryan and Lee.

As happens with all marriages that take place in the squared circle, this one was bound to crash. Lee was convinced to not go ahead with the marriage when she was offered the job of the Raw General Manager.

This meant that poor Daniel Bryan was left alone in the ring. To rub salt to his wounds, The Rock came out and trash talked him in his characteristic manner. He would end the night with delivering a thunderous Rock Bottom to Bryan.

Obviously, Daniel Bryan has come a long way since then. His amazing in-ring skills rallied a fan base that pushed him to become the World Champion at WrestleMania. An encounter with The Rock at this point would hold a lot more value.
