The new Daniel Bryan gives insight as to why he did what he did to capture the WWE Championship from AJ Styles.

Daniel Bryan pronounced The “Yes!” Movement dead

WWE Champion Daniel Bryan famously said “Fight for your dreams, and they will fight for you” several months ago when he emotionally announced that he had been cleared to return to in-ring competition. However, that mantra has now been completely flipped on its head, with Bryan declaring that his shocking attitude change last week was due to his dreams. Bryan revealed that his dream to regain the WWE Title compelled him to kick AJ Styles below the belt last week to secure his title victory. With the WWE Universe in complete shock, he then said that the old Daniel Bryan and The “Yes!” Movement were dead. All that was left now was the WWE Champion and a man who would never again give up on his dreams.
