Bryan Danielson Says The BCC Should Never Break Up, Talks Their Connection

Bryan Danielson spoke with Sports Illustrated about the Blackpool Combat Club (BCC), which was founded by William Regal and currently includes of himself, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, and Claudio Castagnoli. Here are some of the highlights:

What it means to join the group: 

“The idea of Wheeler being with the Best Friends before, and now being with us, that makes us seem different,” says Danielson. “The idea is, when you join us, you can’t be that anymore. That kind of stuff is cool. I tried to get that across in one of my nights on commentary when Mox, Claudio, and Wheeler were wrestling The Best Friends and Rocky [on Dynamite in June]. My point was, those are the guys Okada hangs out with. Look at the guys I hang out with. That tells you so much.”

The connection they have: 

“Our connection as a group feels real,” says Danielson. “That’s because it is. The story is we train together and we make each other better. The reality is that wrestling together, we do make each other better.”

Thinking that the group should never break up:

“I love this group,” says Danielson. “This should be a group that never breaks up. Mox and I have wrestled since the BCC started, we wrestled in the championship tournament [last fall]. That didn’t cause any disturbances in the BCC. That’s the story of the BCC. When the BCC loses, we’ll shake hands and go back to training the next day.”
