NoDQ.com > WWE > Daniel Bryan Talks Charlie Sheen Blowing Off WWE
Posted by Steve Carrier on 07/22/2015 at 04:44 PM
Fox Sports published an article containing ten "surprising revelations" from Daniel Bryan's new autobiography. One of the revelations from the book included plans for Bryan to wrestle Charlie Sheen at SummerSlam back in 2012. Here's what Bryan said on the matter:
"He was going through a very public breakdown at the time, and somehow WWE brokered a deal for him to perform against me. He taped a couple of videos for 'Raw' insulting me, and even though it was a goofy match to be in, it would've put me in one of the top matches at SummerSlam. Unfortunately, whoever brokered the Sheen deal never got him to sign any sort of contract to do the event, and in typical Charlie Sheen fashion, he bailed."

– Here are some new highlights (via FOX Sports) from Daniel Bryan’s new book Yes! My Improbable Journey to the Main Event of Wrestlemania:
On a backstage blow-up he had with HHH after a match with Randy Orton was cut short due to an injury scare: “Usually I don’t get super angry, and when I do it’s barely visible. This time, I was furious and I let everyone know it. When I walked through the curtain, I yelled, ‘What the f— is that all about. That’s f—ing bull—-!’ ‘You need to calm down,’ responded Triple H, who had been communicating with the doctor over the headset and called for the match to be stopped. ‘No, you need to calm the f— down,’ I replied. We were up in each other’s faces and both ready to fight.”
On the first time he ever had sex with Brie Bella: “We were naked and about to do our thing when all of a sudden we heard the sound of the door handle turning and then the door popped open. Bri jumped under the covers as Teddy and Sheamus barged into the room, inebriated as can be, wit the ‘Ahhh fella!’ and all that.”

There's a time live Smackdown would have been of more interest to me. But if it's another two hours of Raw, I'm not that into it.
- The Wrestling Observer Newsletter notes that WWE SmackDown is pretty much seen as a lame-duck show until it switches stations to the USA Network in January 2016.
Jerry Lawler previously teased that the show may go back to Friday nights and go live but we’ve heard no update on that. However, there has been talk of debuting SmackDown on USA with a live Tuesday night special.
Once SmackDown is moved to the USA Network next year it will likely be booked as a “all hands on-deck” show, comparable to RAW.

Meh.
Keep him off tv after this terrible Tough Enough season ends and don't mention him.
Then do what they should've done last year and have him return on the Raw after the Rumbel.

DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In an interview with Fast Company, John Cena revealed he’s looking for more acting projects outside of WWE Studios. Here are highlights:
On doing more than WWE: “I’ve been actively trying to extend my reach beyond WWE. I wanted to do some non-action related projects, stuff that will resonate with different audiences who might not know who I am.”
On being different from his WWE character: “I can’t believe I’m actually saying this, but there is a difference between the John Cena character you see on television and me as a human being. A role like I had on Parks and Rec, to me is very easy to understand and that’s something that I can do with my eyes closed. But these other projects that have come up are more challenging, and in a good way.”
On improving in Trainwreck: “They gave me a lot of liberty to think of who this guy really was. A lot of what you see on screen is completely improv. I have zero experience in that field and truly I’m learning as I go and never once did they make me feel out of place or as if I was holding up production or anything like that. Judd and Amy never once made it intimidating.”

He's already said he won't leave wrestling if he does other stuff.

To which Virgil of course responded by talking about his 14 inches.

Pretty sure something weird is going on between Hogan and the WWE.

Hogan: Brother, I was angling for a spot in the NWA tour, brother. Racist hogan is a gold mine. I have goff and grimace on and I can't stop laughing at their discussion on this. I am a real American......brother. Let him manage the briscoes after they sign. |

This could be the boost Tough Enough needed. Have the friendly bearded judge, the bitchy hot girl judge & the old racist in the middle.
Twitter is having a field day with this. I don't think WWE should erase him from everything, he didn't murder anyone like Benoit, that case I get, but damn, Hulkster is a fuckin idiot. Even if this interview was from 2012. He should know better.

Also Flair is being mentioned as replacing Hogan on Tough Enough, I still won't watch, but that should go well.
It becomes more of a "How long will it take for Naitch to grope Paige?" kind of thing.

I think they should carry on with a subtle racist Axelmania.

WWE really is quite the thing. Their treatment/storylines of blacks and Latinos over the years are far worse than whatever Hogan said.
And to the best of my knowledge, they still have Mike Tyson (convicted rapist), Floyd Mayweather (convicted domestic abuser) and Donald Trump (who made his own questionable comments of late) prominently featured in their HOF.

Actually, maybe Floyd isn't in the HOF. Don't see him on there. But I do see Tyson & Trump.

The National Enquirer has released quotes from audio tapes which allegedly feature Hulk Hogan speaking to Heather Clem, who is Bubba The Love Sponge’s ex-wife, and the woman with whom Hogan was involved in the sex tape scandal.
During the conversation, Hogan is apparently mad that his daughter Brooke is dating, and/or having a sexual relationship with an Africa-American man, and below are some quotes from Hogan:
Warning: the following contains very graphic and controversial language:
“I guess we’re all a little racist.”
“She is making some real bad decisions now. My daughter Brooke jumped sides on me. I spent $2-3 million on her music career, I’ve done everything like a jackass for her.”
“The one option Brooke had, Brooke’s career besides me, is [to] sell beach records.”
“I don’t know if Brooke was f*cking the black guy’s son.”
“I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f*cking n***ers. But then when it comes to nice people and sh*t, and whatever.”
“I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f*ck some n***er, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n***er worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! I guess we’re all a little racist. f–king n***er.”
