I have a lot of fans in Texas.”

— Daniel Bryan spoke with the Huffington Post about his choice to be vegan and his training schedule, saying that it’s simply safer for him to stay vegan.
“My health is so much better,” he said while talking about keeping up with the pace of his job. “I’m bigger now than I was eating meat. My lifts in the gym are better. I’m in better shape.”
He added, “The other wrestlers just think it’s weird. They don’t understand it. Our lifestyles are grueling. I can’t go back to getting as sick as I was. It’s safer to stay vegan.”
