Crossbody of Work Episode 70: Daniel Bryan Part Two – Journey to the WWE Title

Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.

The beginning of Daniel Bryan’s WWE career had everything. We’ve got game show NXT, a fantastic team up with Kane, the beginning of his feud with The Miz, and a legendary match with one John Cena. Not only that, we watched Bryan’s final ever independent match against pod favorite Shelton Benjamin. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about: 

• The Philadelphia 76ers
• Ryback
• Kane’s best tag partners
• Evan’s black eyes

And a lot more.
