Daniel Bryan took to Twitter today and defended wife Brie Bella over the recent in-ring incident with Liv Morgan, claiming she’s been the victim of cyber-bulling.
As noted, Liv is currently out of action with a concussion. She suffered the injury during last week's Raw while taking Yes Kicks from Brie. Bryan defended the accident and revealed a recent accident with Andrade "Cien" Almas on SmackDown.
I am proud of how strong my wife is. After accidentally injuring Liv Morgan last week, the first time Bri’s ever hurt another performer, she’s been subject to a constant barrage of social media attacks. Almost every wrestler has accidentally hurt someone...— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
but rarely do you see this kind of hate when it happens. For example,— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
I concussed Randy Orton in 2012 after hitting him with what was supposed to be a chair to the back. Unfortunately part of the side hit him in the back of the head, and he was forced to miss a PPV...
In 2009 in our last match against each other, I concussed Nigel McGuinness after doing a dive into him in the crowd, where his head hit the floor. And there are others...— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
As for the Yes kicks, two weeks ago I accidentally kicked Andrade directly in the head due to a miscommunication on my part. I feel fortunate that he was ok, because there are few feelings worse than hurting someone...— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
Despite all of that, never did I receive the backlash Bri did this week. With all the negative things said about my wife, nobody was harder on her than she was on herself...— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
Thank you to the many people who reached out to support her, both publicly and privately. We all wish Liv Morgan a speedy recovery. #EndCyberbullying— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) October 1, 2018
