Brie Bella on Bryan Danielson’s Influence on Her Work in the Ring

“I think when people … watch, they see so much of Bryan’s work in me. Obviously, he’s my coach, so we go over stuff. … My biggest thing I asked for is: I want to put on the Yes Lock. And [WWE] let me! … I didn’t know if they would, because it is Bryan’s. And when people see the Yes Lock, it’s not like they think of Brie Bella, you know?”

“It’s funny because I [said], ‘Bryan, I’m taking your Yes Kicks, I’m doing some knee s**t, and now the Yes Lock. He was like, ‘Brie, I’m retired. If there is anyone in the world that I want to have my moves, it’s my wife.’ So that made me feel good.”

Brie Bella was in action on the July 3 edition of WWE SmackDown. She lost to Lainey Reid in a singles bout. At this weekend’s WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Brie Bella and tag team partner Paige will defend their titles against Fatal Influence.

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event takes place on July 18 at MSG. It will stream live on Peacock.
