The last time we saw Daniel Bryan/Bryan Danielson on television was when he was defeated by Universal Champion Roman Reigns and "banished" from SmackDown.
Since then, it's thought that Bryan's contract with WWE has expired, meaning he's a free agent. It sounds like the Leader of the Yes Movement couldn't come to terms with Vince McMahon on a deal that would allow him the freedom to wrestle in Mexico and Japan, and it's 99.9% certain he's going to join CM Punk in AEW any week now.
It appears Bryan will have a new look when he does announce his "All Elite" status as a photo shared by his wife Brie Bella reveals a totally different hairstyle. As you can see, he's cut his hair short on the sides and is rocking a ponytail; the former WWE Champion has also let his beard grow out.
Bryan has been keeping a low profile since his WWE departure, but during this week's episode of AEW Dynamite, CM Punk basically confirmed that Danielson has signed with the company.
Check out the photos below and keep checking back here for updates as we have them!
