5 WWE Superstars and the English Premier League club they support

#2 Daniel Bryan (Everton)

One of WWE's most loveable underdogs, Daniel Bryan has chosen to support a club that isn't nearly the biggest. Everton has not won a trophy for 25 years but still retains its status as one of the more known clubs in the English Premier League, thanks to its rich history and heated local rivalry with Liverpool. Perhaps, that's why Sheamus defeated him in 18 seconds at WrestleMania 28.

Bryan started supporting the Toffees because of NXT coach, Robbie Brookside's loyalty to them. He spent quite a long time in the UK during the early-to-mid 2000s, with some of the passion for football rubbing off on him. The 5-time WWE World Champion was particularly impressed by a chant about Wayne Rooney when he left Everton to join Manchester United in 2004.

The Merseyside club did gain another WWE Superstar's support as well, in the form of Fandango. The current NXT had a small Twitter feud with Everton regarding his ultra-catchy theme song back in 2013, before settling his differences with them and visiting Goodison Park a year later.

Aside from Bryan and Fandango, Drake Maverick also supports Everton. And unlike his fellow Blues in WWE, the former 205 Live General Manager has been a long-time supporter of the Toffees. However, it is fair to say that Daniel Bryan is the most notable Everton fan on the WWE roster.
