Blogging: My Improbable Journey to Being the Best at Blogging

There is a lot of things that can be common between wrestling, stories and journeys that Chris Jericho and Daniel Bryan. But I think both have views of wrestling different, Bryan says at times if he wondered was wrestling worth it, "But I naively assumed that when I was done wrestling, I could always go home and make up for all the time I've missed with my family and friends. Now, going home isn't same, and there is nothing I can do to make for all the time I've spent always from my father." Bryan was not happy that he missed so much of his life for wrestling and it saddens him, especially since he no longer would see his father anymore. Jericho though sometimes sees wrestling worth it because it's what he dedicated his life for since he was a kid. Jericho was passionate for wrestling and though Bryan was as well passionate, he didn't get his time with his friends and family like Jericho. 

Both though have favorite moments of their career which shows even though wrestling wasn't completely worth it, they still had their highlights of their career. Jericho's favorite was his third return to WWE in the Royal Rumble 2013 because of how much his fans cheered for him to be back, "It was such a thrill to see the fans, MY fans, jump up on their feet and lose their minds when Jericho flashed across the Tron. It was the loudest ovation I ever received in my twenty-two years of wrestling and could be the favorite moment of my career...something I'll never ever forget." This shows how he really appreciated being in the WWE and being liked by the WWE. Bryan had his favorite moment because of his friends, more specifically Glenn Jacobs (Kane) who teamed up with him and they became so over (popular) that their program lasted longer than they expected. Bryan also liked the fans cheering for him and Glenn because of how amusing they were.

A Connection

Hello guys, this is more of of a more serious post or blog, but in the book "Yes: My Improbable Journey to the Main Event of Wrestlemania" by Daniel Bryan, he talks about in the epilogue of his father and how after he was married, his father passed away. Not too long after I read that a lady from my church named Hermana Dominga had passed. I never really got to do all the things I wanted to do with her just like Bryan. Bryan's dad didn't get to see the wedding because of his dad's wife had pneumonia which oddly was the same symptom Dominga had. But Bryan had found about it by, "Bri and I were leisurely preparing to go to Raw, when I got a phone call. My dad had died, completely unexpected, at the age of fifty-seven. I went from an unequivocal high to an unequivocal low." And I had felt so lowered down like a chunk of my heart was taken away, I never really go to talk to her because she spoke Spanish and I didn't know any, but I always thought that I would one day have a conversation with her and that I had all the time in world. I didn't. And I won't. "I hugged him, trying to say good-bye, but nothing felt good enough." I never really got to say anything to Dominga in her casket because I just felt ashamed, I felt ashamed because I didn't do want I wanted to do, she was like a third grandma or a first because I never known my grandmas. I feel I can connect to what Bryan was feeling because of his death and sadly both of us won't see them ever again.

Thank you for everything, Hermana Dominga

Musical Mayhem

What I am looking forward to this spring is the musical because the experience is so fun for the musical. I remember last year they had asked me to be a bunny which caught me off guard, but then in the end, I ended up being the show stealer getting the most cheers. Sadly people remember me as the  "Bunny Boy"  which isn't so great at times.

BLOGGING: My Improbable Journey to Writing a Blog

Hello guys, Whole Blogging Show here and I want to talk about a memory moment in the book, YES: My Improbable Journey to the Main Event of Wrestlemania by Daniel Bryan or Bryan Danielson, which is a froot auto-biography (I really like auto-biographies if you didn't notice) about Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson) talks about his Journey to the WWE and journey to the Main Event of Wrestlemania. Though this is a kind of minor memory moment I kind of find it interesting. So what had happened is that Byran was finally signed to the WWE and was on their show NXT which was prepping them up for the main roster. Bryan though felt stagnant having no direction in being there having a 0-10 losing streak. When he was eliminated from the show, they had taken him backstage for an interview, they asked him what it felt like leaving the Independent Circuit of wrestling to go to the WWE and to be losing like that. Obviously wrestling isn't real, but rather scripted, it ticked him off that they would ask something like that and he replied, "'Well, that's funny because 'Daniel Bryan' never wrestled on the independent scene,' I said. If you go on and YouTube 'Daniel Bryan,' all you ever see is WWE. But there was this guy, man, he was out there, he was kicking people's heads in: people called him the best wrestler in the world. He was champion in Japan, Mexico, and Europe. And do you know what his name was?'" This was significant because of how Bryan, who now was furious, reflected on how in other companies, he was made champion in the other companies, but now in the WWE, they wouldn't book him to win a single match. 

The interviewer tries to cover up what he says by asking what is next for Daniel Bryan, Bryan said this, "'Daniel Bryan' might be done, but Bryan Danielson-God knows what's going to happen to him." They had to make him redo the interview, but I think he had a memory moment in all of this about his old status with wrestling. Bryan Danielson wrestled all over the world and he remembers that, soon saying "God knows what's going to happen to him." I think he is trying to say that Bryan Danielson will be given better treatment as a wrestler than Daniel Bryan will be treated as a Wrestler, since on his quote, he compares the two wrestling backgrounds. One having a losing streak which in some cases signifies that you're jobber (someone who persistently loses) and the other being a long reigning champion in Europe and America, and championship reigns in Japan. That is why I think this is a memory moment, it is a memory moment because he reflects on his career and the new character of him, Daniel Bryan.
