Daniel Bryan, in a recent interview with Hot 97's podcast with Peter Rosenberg spoke on a variety of topics like his career-ending injuries, his lifestyle, and also revealed something that would surprise several fans.

The former WWE World Heavyweight champion said that he wasn't a fan of The Rock or Stone Cold in his younger days.Bryan said that although he appreciated the talents that The Rock or Stone Cold Steve Austin had with the mic in their hands, he preferred to watch a wrestler with technical expertise like Dean Malenko.

"The part about wrestling that I like the least -- and I'm one of the very few people who as a wrestling fan, didn't like The Rock, or Stone Cold Steve Austin, because they would go out and cut these awesome and entertaining promos -- that wasn't my deal," said Bryan.

"He was (Malenko) very, very technical and some ways -- some people who are not into the interview part of it (promos), they like the fight aspect, where it's a big brawl; Dean Malenko was also not that guy. He was the guy who would do a sweet drop toehold... that was my kind of thing,"
