One of the most consistent rivals of Daniel Bryan’s WWE career has been The Miz. Recently, “The A-Lister” spoke to Sports Illustrated about his desire to face Bryan in the ring again.
The Miz said he doesn’t know what Bryan’s plans are, but if he ever returned to the ring he’d welcome a match with him.
“I would love to beat him up. I would love to beat him up in a WWE ring, all day every day. But I don’t know what the plans are for Daniel. I know his passion is in the WWE ring, now whether that’s as a general manager or as a professional wrestler, I don’t know, I don’t know his plans,” The Miz said. “I know he’s working tremendously hard to get back in the WWE ring, and I [have my] fingers crossed because I would love to have a match with Daniel Bryan. He’s one of the best in-ring technicians that WWE has ever seen, and I would like to showcase how much better I am than him.”
The Miz said as long as Bryan get’s medical clearance, he’d have no qualms about competing against him.
“If doctors sign him up and say, ‘Listen, this guy is OK,’ I am more willing to kick him in the chest, in the stomach, and hit him with the Skull-Crushing Finale a couple of times,” he said.
