Daniel Bryan is one of the most popular WWE Superstars of all time. His famous Yes! Chants have taken him places, and fans have backed him and pushed him up to the pedestal he is on now. As a fan favorite, Bryan has managed to do a lot more than winning matches. 

Before WrestleMania XXX season, Bryan had become increasingly popular for his antics and gimmick. Fans had grown to love the man with overgrown facial hair and unruly style. After chanting ‘Yes!’, to ‘No!’, and then back to ‘Yes!’, everyone loved Daniel Bryan and demanded his title match at the grandest stage.

Fans blocked out any other sound by their defining Yes! Chants, and WWE decided to grant their wishes by giving him the golden key. However, the door was Triple H himself, hot on his role as the head of The Authority.

This was an impossible scenario since getting past Triple H is one thing and facing Randy Orton and Batista on the same night completely another. No wrestler would go in expecting to win. 

However, Daniel Bryan managed to do it and came out as an absolute winner. He heroically defeated Triple H and then went on, battle-weary, to face Orton and Batista.

‘The American Dragon’ overcame all odds and blasted through Orton, pinning him to win both the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships on the same night!
