Practice English Speaking&Listening with: FULL MATCH - “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt vs Daniel Bryan – Universal Title Strap Match: Royal Rumble 2020

[SOUND] >> It has been nearly

a decade since we've had a strap match in WWE and Corey, there's a reason why.

You cannot get away from your opponent and the strap can be used as a weapon.

>> Daniel Bryan believes At that the way to defeating

The Fiend Bray Wyatt is by stopping The Fiend from escaping.

There is no escape in this situation, but I question Daniel Bryan's decision to

tie himself to one of the most diabolical, unholy beings we have ever seen.

>> The clean shave in Daniel Bryan, it was dragged down underneath the ring and

had all of the hair ripped out of his head by The Fiend.

The reason Bryan is the way he is today and how Fiend tries to pull Bryan toward

him, we're on the way, right hands from Daniel Bryan.

>> There's no questioning Daniel Bryan is fearless.

Whether or not that fearlessness is actually a benefit remains to be seen.

Yes, kicks out of the gate.

>> Daniel Bryan came prepared for battle.

No doubt about it.

>> And I think of your Daniel Bryan, Corey,

you have to put the feed away early.

And what a power bomb.

>> And that might've been Daniel Bryan's only opportunity.

The Fiend, perhaps the most intimidating creature

in the history of WWE, now using the strap.

>> And now, the universal champion is going to savor these punishment being

inflicted on the challenger.

>> Again and again, The Fiend using the strap in a match that

Daniel Bryan requested, that Bryan asked for.

no doubt about that when he had his first running with The Fiend.

It's without a doubt been his most effective weapon against The Fiend.

The question Corey is, was that it, was that the last rally, the last gasp for

Daniel Bryan?
