Bully Ray Explains Why He Wishes Daniel Bryan Was At All In

Bully Ray wishes that former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan was able to participate in the historic All In event that went down last weekend in Chicago at the Sears Centre Arena, which aired on pay-per-view, FITE.TV, and ROH’s streaming service.

Obviously, the reason that Bryan did not appear at the show was due to him being contracted with the WWE. However, he did give a nod to the event by sending out a tweet about it the day of the show. The WWE Hall of Famer spoke about his desire to see Bryan at the show if he had the opportunity during a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, which he co-hosts.

“Deep down in his heart of hearts, Daniel Bryan wishes he could have been on that show,” Ray said. He continued by stating that this was a type of show that Bryan is someone who prays that they can be involved with because that’s where it all begins for them. Ray stated that All In was basically a ROH-esque show and noted that Bryan started there and would have loved to been there.

"I haven't seen wrestlers and fans come together and have this much fun together since ECW One Night Stand. And that's the highest compliment I can pay to it."@bullyray5150 on the wrestler/fan excitement of @ALL_IN_2018 #AllIn

Since September of last year, the WWE Hall of Famer has taken a step back from being an in-ring competitor as he has only worked a handful of Ring of Honor shows since then.

As noted, Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Bryan just signed his new contract as they’ve agreed on terms. He signed it a few days ago but it’s not official since WWE hadn’t signed it, but that’s a formality and it should be official very soon.
