[10.0] "Bryan Danielson is the greatest professional wrestler to ever walk this green earth. His in-ring skills are not up for debate. And Daniel Bryan's heel run, which started with this promo, proved that his character work is equally excellent. For five years, Daniel Bryan was the hottest babyface in the entire industry. The fans were so behind him that they hijacked the build for WrestleMania and refused to relent until their guy was given his rightful spot at the top. But his body wore down a bit too much, and his retirement speech was the most soul-crushing since Edge's five years prior. But then, above all odds, he didn't relent, and when the news came out that fateful Tuesday afternoon that he was cleared, the wrestling world cried tears of joy. If he was any other wrestler, he would be content to just coast the guaranteed pops for a year or two and just be happy to be here. But Bryan Danielson is not "any other wrestler". He didn't want to sit back and coast. The best heels in this day and age are the ones with a righteous sense of justification. And, well, nothing that Bryan said in this promo was in correct. He played his part as the despicable heel in the program with Kofi Kingston perfectly, and the promo that started Bryan's greatest character arc deserves all the credit."

[10.0] "This is the start of an excellent heel run that no one wanted at the time but nothing short of legendary in retrospect, and it started in the best way possible. This might be the best You People promo ever and shows Danielson's diversity as a heel with very different heel runs compared to the two prior."

[10.0] "This was Bryan introducing his new heel character and explaining his motivations to do so and correctly calling wrestling fans fickle."

[10.0] "What a moment for Daniel Bryan, back then he needed this kind of promos for us to see that he really is good for this."

[10.0] "This promo was absolutely brilliant and a great way to start heel run. I especially loved the Brock Lesnar part."

[10.0] "One of the best promo if not the best promo in the modern era. Only CM Punk shooting on Cena could compare. Bryan shouting fickle to the fans was so true as wresting fans including me are really fickle. Bryan as heel champion is the best thing that was happening in the wrestling world at the time. Bryan was so passionate and delivered everything with conviction."

[10.0] "Daniel Bryan's third great heel run (1st was in ROH 2006, 2nd was in WWE around 2011) could not have started any better. After having had three years of on-camera talking (and only talking) experience and no doubt a decent amount of bitterness over these years, he has finally surpassed his mentor, Shawn Michaels, in the most important skill of sports entertainment: charisma. This was a promo that solidified a heel turn and as such was immensly important and Bryan's delivery and reasoning was just excellent and all it needed to be for him to overcome the stale YES-movement and allow him to start a new chapter in his career."

[10.0] "Ganz starke Promo. Daniel hält sich ja nicht für den größten Redner, aber hier beweist er, dass er mit einem Hintergrund, der für ihn sicherlich eher real war, absolut abliefert. Gut gesteigert (inkl. starkem Ende), gute Betonungen, rhetorisch einwandfrei, inhaltlich stark. Ziemliches Brett. Für mich auch Grundlage für seinen sehr guten Heel-Run."

[10.0] "Pretty excellent promo. I wouldn't consider myself a promo guy but this entertained the hell out of me."

[10.0] "This was incredible. Daniel Bryan was an automatic babyface upon his return and easily could have stayed as such so to see him turn heel was fantastic and a little bit of a shock.. The crowd reaction added another level to this and Daniel brilliantly transitioned to his new arrogant heel role. It was also pretty true as well"
