Quantcast Vegetarian Starvegan (145)

Chris Jericho

“When Daniel Bryan first came in a couple of years ago, you saw the evolution of the character. He came in as like the NXT nobody, then gets fired and then comes back as a nerd and as a vegan. The vegan thing came about because Vince hates vegans. Vince would say “how could you not eat steak?” He made vegan into a heel tendency. I always knew Daniel Bryan would get over because once again look at his career path. He had gotten over everywhere he had been. You can make jokes that he wrestled in a bingo hall or a gym, but getting over is getting over whether it’s in front of 200 people or 20,000 people. It’s the same principle. How do I get the crowd on my side either as a heel or a babyface?”

Chris Jericho, professional Canadian wrestler on the success of Daniel Bryan and the wrestling industry’s trend in relying on newbie wrestlers vs. older and more established ones to fuel a fan following.

Babyfaces always steal the show. Vegan babyface make the crowd come back for more.
