Many current WWE superstars had some interesting jobs when they were younger in order to save up so that they could pay for wrestling training and later go on to pursue their dreams. Bryan is another one of these stars since it was revealed by Bryan himself that he took a job at McDonald's sweeping the floors when he was just 15 years old so that he could save for Wrestling training.
Bryan wasn't allowed to train until he was 16, so he saved up the $500 deposit for Dean Malenko's training school so that he could start training following his birthday. Sadly, by the time Bryan was able to train with the school, it closed down and he was never able to reclaim his deposit.
Bryan later went on to reveal in an interview with Newsweek that he also went on to deliver newspapers so that he was able to afford to live his dream. Bryan was just one of only a handful of stars who were able to make a living being a professional wrestler after working a regular job.
