5. Daniel Bryan Doing Jiu-Jitsu Training
During a recent interview with Sporting News, UFC Welterweight Ben Henderson noted that former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan has been doing Jiu-Jitsu training while he’s out of in-ring action in WWE. Below is what he said:
“He was out with some injuries in WWE. He came to our gym and moved up to blue belt in jiu-jitsu under my coach John Crouch. Every time I go in there, he’s working his butt off. I heard he was pretty strong and actually surprised me with how technical he is.
A lot of guys have a hard time learning all those techniques. I heard he was really great at being able to use his technique and not relying on his strength. He’s smooth and does jiu-jitsu really well.”
It looks like Bryan is trying to change his wrestling style due to the amount of injuries he has suffered over the years due to his style.
