Recently, Daniel Bryan was interviewed on My San Antonio. The former WWE Champion talked about his haircut segment and how he had a completely different idea compared to WWE officials. Daniel Bryan said that he wanted Wyatt to rip his beard off. For Bryan, his beard was his identity. Daniel Bryan said that he pitched that idea, but officials asked Bryan to cut his hair too. Daniel Bryan added that he wanted to keep his hair long, but that idea was shot down. He had to cut both his hair and beard before WWE TLC.

"By him ripping out or cutting my beard, it would be this idea that he’s stripping me of part of my identity. That was my kind of pitch to them. What actually happened? They said, ‘Well, yeah, then he can cut your hair, too!’” said Daniel Bryan.
