What If Series : What if WWE Superstars were Cricketers ?

4) Daniel Bryan – Yuvraj Singh

Fighters to the extreme degree. The fact that every single individual could connect to these two men is what makes them special. Daniel Bryan had a remarkable year 2013-2014.

Starting from the absolute scratch and being told multiple times that he was not good enough, Bryan with his consistent performances won the hearts of the WWE Universe and under their thunderous pressure of the ‘Yes’ chants, the WWE management had to change the plans for the main event of Wrestlemania 30 where Bryan emerged victorious.

However, soon enough Bryan had to relinquish the title and eventually retire due to suffering multiple concussions due to his fast-paced style of wrestling. Along similar lines, Yuvi showed amazing tenacity and battled through illness (which was later diagnosed as lung cancer) to lead India to a world cup triumph after 28 years, winning the Player of the Tournament award.

While Yuvi successfully fought his way through cancer and is trying to rediscover his old and golden touch, Bryan has joined the Smackdown roster has the General Manager of the show (a non-wrestling role).
