WWE news: Daniel Bryan reveals which Smackdown star is the best wrestler in the world
DANIEL BRYAN considers WWE Champion AJ Styles to be the best in-ring performer in the world.
Bryan has a long history with Styles as they both feuded during their days in Ring of Honor.
The YES Man got the chance to step into the ring once more against the WWE Champion on the first episode of Smackdown after WrestleMania 34 in a match that ended in a No Contest.
The Leader of the YES Movement was convinced after the dream match that The Phenomenal One is the best wrestler in the world.
Bryan told SPORTbible: “I consider AJ to be the best right now as far as in-ring performance.

“It was good to be able to go out there and see if I could keep up with him not only physically but mentally because a large part of what we do is mental.
"I actually wish we had more time; the match we had was 10-12 minutes or whatever it was and hopefully soon we'll have the chance to do a solid 30 minutes and do our thing."
Bryan was forced to retire two years ago after a series of concussions took a huge toll on his health.
However, the four-time world champion beat the odds and managed to get cleared for an in-ring return just before WrestleMania.

The ex-WWE Champion’s first match took place at Mania where he teamed up with Shane McMahon and beat Kevin Owens as well as Sami Zayn.
Styles shocked the world when he made his WWE debut at the Royal Rumble two years ago.
After forming a worldwide fanbase thanks to his stints at Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro-Wrestling and Impact Wrestling, the two-time world champion managed to make it to the top of WWE.
