It's crazy how true William ringle statement is. Daniel Bryan has more talent in his little finger than Ezekiel Jackson has in his entire body. This situation happened almost 10 years ago. Daniel Bryan is a household name in the wrestling community around the world. As someone who was watching WWE religiously at this time of the incident I have no idea who Ezekiel Jackson is and I forgot that he even existed until this video.
@@NoxWyatt but Daniel Bryant didn't have a big WWE contract until 2009. Let's be real He was a part of Ring of Honor for a while and I believe he also did some stents in Japan. But only like the most hardcore wrestling fans with know about that. I believe by 2014 Daniel Bryant was like the face of WWE from his debut from 2009
Ezekiel would have been folded up by DB. Some people forgot that some wrestlers have already paid dues elsewhere, and others are lucky they don't throw their weight around.
@@H.K.5 , sounds like you think that in a real fight that an unschooled roid case would beat an elite level highly trained combat expert? By that thinking, Lesnar would have beat Angle when they wrestled for real...Angle beat him. Ezekiel has no training in combat sports, he wouldn't have a prayer against a guy like Daniel Bryan. Even Urijah Faber would crush him.
@@Dark-Pikachu1 i think hes better than dolph, even then is that supposed to be an insult? both are good wrestlers, zeke couldn’t lace either ones boots lol
Note: This story is from one side only and Ezekiel doesn't talk about or even involve himself with wrestling at all anymore. Regal has been known to make up stories.
The fact that you’re expected to just give up your seat to wrestlers who have been there longer (even if they’re arguably worse then you are) is absolutely stupid.
Regal is one of the best living wrestlers of his Era. He may not have been world champ in wwe or wcw but he definitely deserved it. Legend. And he knew Bryan Danielson was going to be better than him in all respects.
How many more of these “Seniority” rules have the wrestlers done? I saw the one where rookies weren’t allowed to apply ice to them after a match if they were new to the main roster because it was “disrespectful to veterans”? That is absolutely ridiculous.
If I remember correctly it's to prove that the rookies really wanna do it because it's not like the Indies where it's once a week so if you can't suffer though then there's no reason to be there
That was Seth and Cena. The Miz is the best example with regards to rookie hazing. So many stories with regards to how many times he got bullied in the locker room by the so called "vets"
it has changed for the better at least. now the locker room is healthier and wrestlers are more busy playing videogames and being nice than fighting and bullying each other
I've looked Ezekiel up and I literally have no memory of this man ever existing. He was a multiple time champion and I wouldn't have known about him had it not been for this.
Bryan was never in the company when it was still called WWF. I mean, they had changed their name from WWF to WWE like 20 years ago back in May of 2002!
@@Dark-Pikachu1 Dolph is so good, man. He never really was given a proper shake, in my opinion. Despite all of the accolades he’s accrued. I would like to see Dolph be given another major heel run, where he can be a bit more stiff. And then put him in the ring with Nakamura. I feel like that would be a solid rivalry.
Dude be acting like he's a veteran in the wrestling business when Bryan Danielson had more years in him before even signing a contract to WWE and accomplished more than Ezekiel Jackson did.
The whole "give up your seat" rule is dumb to begin with, but the idea that guys like Ezekiel Jackson tried to play the veteran card on someone like Bryan Danielson, who was in fact already a wrestling veteran by many years, and already a draw even before getting into WWE. Absolutely nuts.

He broke a rule on not giving up his seat to a veteran that's what he means which Vince makes pretty dumb rules honestly
Good 4 bryan nvr let u self get punked
It's not the fact that Daniel Bryan didn't want to give up his seat. It's how Jackson asked
Jacksons seat was in the back. Keep it traditional 💀
Let’s be honest here. Bryan would’ve and could’ve chocked out Ezekiel with ease.
So where exactly was the moment he almost got in trouble??
For not giving up his seat.
Can we just not adore Regal for the man he is. What an absolute gift, that man is literally too good for wrestling.
Fun facts: Daniel bryan debut on 2003 vs john cena on velocity ppv but his name was Bryan Danielson
Yes! Yes!
And then Daniel went on to be the world heavyweight champion
Everything I've seen of Bryan is honest and classy. He really seems like a great man. ❤🇺🇲
Giving his seat to someone else is a smart move by Bryan to prove his point.
