Seabs it doesn't matter if it's a marketing slogan, Punk is the best at what he does and you can't compare Daniel Crap with CM Punk that's just way out of the line. Like now we've gotten to a whole new level or let us say you took it to a whole new level, Punk is much much much better in the microphone than what Daniel is, he is also a much more better in-ring performer and gains triple the attention Daniel Bryan gains.

Don't compare these two, no way it wouldn't work.

Here come the videos. Warning this will be a long ass post.

Bryan is better then Punk in the ring. Punk's had classics with Aries, Samoa Joe , John Cena and Rey Mysterio amongst others but Danielson has been more consistent and a better technician for a long time.

A few examples of this :





What to keep it solely WWE? Look at the content of the matches. He carried someone who was poor in the ring, The Miz to a good - great match.

[video=dailymotion]http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xex4eb_night-of-champions-2010-the-miz-vs_sport[/video]



On the mic he's not as strong as Punk admittedly but he's still very good examples include :



Once again if you want to keep it solely WWE :



Plus his recent heel work has been very good and gained serious heat.

Punk got some attention for the first time in a long time because of good booking. The same reason dragon is gaining attention now. Punk was allowed to do something no one else was allowed to on WWE television. Shoot ! Before that he was languishing in the midcard on a run of 8 consecutive PPV losses.

If anyone wants to hear about what Danielson is like out side of the wwe. I'd advise you listen to his podcasts with Colt Cabana : http://tsmradio.com/coltcabana/2011/11/09/aow-68-daniel-bryan/

Nothing to add except to strongly suggest subscribing to the Art of Wrestling podcast with Colt Cabana. You'll get some great insight into the real lives of pro wrestlers.

If I'm remembering correctly, Punk was the guest on the first podcast (which makes perfect sense, of course). The latest show had Mikey Whipwreck and was co-hosted by Punk, so it was pretty cool. Plus, Colt (or as WWE fans will remember him, Scotty Goldman) is a true lover of wrestling and a hilarious guy to boot.

I'd 'appreciate it' if he could find a way to keep his voice from cracking 10 times per promo.

I also think Big Show completely outclassed him on the mic tonight in their promo

Nah, it's hard with Bryan's gimmick to come out on top with a mic-war to be honest, lol. Big Show showed some aggression yeah, but doesn't he just bore you every-time he speaks? I'd love Bryan to go all out on Show, it'd be hilarious to see a vegan go on and on about Big Show's weight.

Big Show's matches put me to sleep, but when he's aggressive on the mic he is bearable. I'm searching for why everyone thinks Bryan was so great on the mic tonight. I agree he's been good overall as late, but he didn't blow me away by any means with this promo

He wasn't his best by any means, I just think he plays the arrogant asshole so well. He makes you want to punch him. I personally believe Bryan is at his best when he's a heel but with aggression like we've seen for a couple of RAW's last month. Also I agree, only time I can tolerate Show is when he's aggressive on the mic. Doesn't help cases though when he's been in what, 7 WHC matches in a row now? 5 straight PPV's and 2 SmackDown matches?
