They were milquetoast personality-wise, had little to no charisma (or at least showed it), but they are/were good wrestlers.Does anyone else agree with me on that assessment?

That's Mr. Bob Backlund to you.
But yeah, can see it. If Bryan put on about fifty pounds and shaved he'd probably be a dead ringer for him.

Yes he should alternate the crossface with the chickenwing.

I can see that. Not 1994 heel Backlund though, he's more like 1980 babyface BB.

Yes he should alternate the crossface with the chickenwing. He has used it in the past. Bryan's more of a natural heel anyway and, given the right crowd, has done extremely well on the mic.

Bob Backlund never had RIDE OF THE f***ING VALKYRIES as entrance music.
Advantage, Bryan.

Dan Bryan was never presidential material. Advantage Mr Backlund.

I really don't understand where this whole "Bryan has no charisma" thing comes from.
If he started talking really slowly and then shouting, "I'M DANIEL BRYAN AND I'M REALLY COOL" I bet he'd get praised for oozing charisma.

Can't wait for Bryan to snap and apply the LeBell Lock on John Cena, Jr. in 25 years.

Do I have to know all the US presidents to get an autograph from Bryan?

He reminds me more of Dean Malenko.

He reminds me more of Dean Malenko. So, he'll have a James Bond ladies man gimmick?

One thing I noticed, is it seemed like he was trying hard not to laugh during his segment with Edge. I wish they would have done a better job with the segment, where they would have a bunch of other people in the locker room, showing him reading, and then he's seen coming up to Edge.
