If you're interested, here's my first interview with Christopher Daniels from August 2014. It was right after he was released by TNA and had signed with ROH kzread.info/dash/bejne/qK6mmbaKfLqxodI.html

Chris Van Vliet Do you got any interviews with Roman Reigns? If so, how much? And cab you link them. Heard he's a real cool dude behind the scenes. Not sure why everybody is starting to hate him so much now. This is what they been asking for with him for a min...a heel turn or turn heel. Before that, he tweaked his character to be more grittier, since they asked for it. He turned tweener and all that...but these dumb ass fans STILL complain. That's why WWE don't listen to their ass too much....and they going to stop it very soon.

Jay C My issue with reigns is the scripts they give him for his promos and interviews. To me they don't feel like natural comments his character would make. They need to go to a more general idea script and they change it on the fly similar to old attitude era promos and I think he would be a lot better.

So long overdue for Christopher Daniels to become a World Champion in the wrestling industry! His ROH title is well deserved i'd say!

The wrestling industry puts a lot of strain on you mentally and physically but doing this for 24 years and still being great at it maaannn my hat is off to him

Love him as the Fallen Angel gimmick on TNA but yeah Daniels & AJ has some of greatest matches on TNA Impact with Joe to. He still looks great for his age but him and AJ are best friends plus they both Godparent to each other kids. AJ is Christopher Daniels Godfather to his kids and AJ is Godfather to his kids to they both go way back.

The 2016 Ladder wars match changed my life. Probably his too. That was a great match.

Wow how this guy never made it to WWE is shocking. But he is still one of my favs. Another great interview.

I've been watching Chris van vliet since woio channel 19 ......and he moved on to prime wrestling and now he's a backstage interviewer. Good job man😄

I really hope WWE does hire him, but not as a wrestler. He has a theater degree, and cut one of the best scripted promos ever right before his match with Adam Cole. I'd love if he taught promo classes at NXT, or maybe even wrote for WWE. Boy could they use someone to really help some guys and girls out promo-wise.

supermario2100 if WWE were smart they'd put SCSA in charge of booking (just listen to his podcasts... He gets IT) and CD/Heyman to write all their promos and work w/ the performers on cadence, delivery, body language, hard cam eye contact, etc... The company would see a renaissance of fans who left return based on product quality alone.

Christopher is just a great wrestler. Keeps in amazing shape, always shows up, and puts on a show. Old school solid.

Thank you Chris Daniels you rock bro 🦅🤘 toooooo sweeeeettttt

Thanks Chris ... great interview!

He's on my top 10 list.

Fun story: because AJ has a tradition to name every kid he has with a name that starts with A. That was the only reason he didn’t name one of his kids Daniel to honor his friend CD so he did by making it the middle name for one of his sons.

@donkiddick966

Жыл бұрын

Close, but AJ actually gave his oldest son the middle name Covell (Daniels birth surname) in honour of Daniels. I believe one of Daniels kids is named after AJ? (His son’s middle name is Allen)

I respect Christopher Daniels so much. He what being true Veteran os all about. His mindset and ambition is admirable. Support this guy.

this was a great interview well done.

that was a good interview. Well done

I liked the falling angel gimmick

Legend. One of the guys that got me interested in wrestling again after years of not watching.

What a wonderful interview

Good interview. Christopher Daniels is such a humble down to earth guy.

Gosh , my guy is so Humble and down to Earth.. Wish him nothing but Success..

It is just my opinion (though others may agree) but I think Christopher Daniels has to go down as the greatest in-ring talent to have never worked for WWE. I first became aware of Christopher Daniels I guess in the 90's, not sure of the name, I think it was the UWA or UWF here in the UK, a very short-lived wrestling promotion with British Wrestling legend Mick McManus as it's commissioner. It's great to see that he is still wrestling, and honestly if it wasn't for the fact people have mentioned it, you would never think he was as old as he is. Christopher Daniels is truly one of the all-time greats

Daniels is the reason i get into the ring myself, the first Wrestler I ever saw on TV back in 2006 (in the glory days of TNA) when he was (in my opinion) the greatest character I have seen (other than the Undertaker), The Fallen Angel. his in ring ability is on another level, everything he does looks unique to him, even just his punches and the way he throws them, and things like the BME and Angels Wings still look so damn impressive. The fact he still has a broken bone in his neck! Such a top bloke, real kind and genuine, one day i hope to meet him, hell maybe even Wrestle him, but that's a long way away for me at the moment.

The Fallen Angel, I remember when Samosa Joe first joined TNA and Daniels, AJ and Joe had a great triple threat title match. It was a great rivalry for awhile. Best Moonsault Ever was a very cool finishing move.

Imagine Christopher Daniels in WWE in 2002-2008.I think he would've had a great run in that company.

I just went to an ROH show last night and I got to see Bully (Bubba) Ray, Cody (Rhodes), Jay Lethal, Chris Sabin, Jeff Cobb, Dalton Castle, Kushida, Los Ingobernables, the Briscoes, Young Bucks, etc. and the highlight for me was getting the chance to see Christopher Daniels live for the first time. :D I told him that he's one of the most underrated wrestlers.

Do another interview with Cristopher Daniels! Please!

imo A great wrestler and seems to be a great guy as well. imo

woah! there is wrestling outside of wwe??? nice vid...interesting to see other stars in this industry

So interesting watching this in 2020.

As much as he has done all over the world, when he cried after he wrestled Ikuto Hidaka touched me, and cemented my fandom of him. Congrats to the Fallen Angel, he really does deserve it.

The AJ Styles vs Christopher Daniels feuds In TNA was always amazing to watch! Its sucks he could never get in to the WWE but dam I never new he was 47! he looks amazing!

happy anniversary

I feel sorry for Christopher Daniel's Such a Great talent who never was and looks like never will be hired by the wwe he deserves his chance in the big league 47 unbelievable and he still has great in ring ability

very humble guy love him

a dream match of mine that will never be seen has always been Christopher Daniels Vs Shawn Michaels

I miss his matches with AJ Styles. One of the greatest wrestling friends I have ever seen on screen.

A top notch champion who has proved time and time again that you don't need WWE to be successful

CD doesnt age. He still looks the same from when i was watching him in TNA.

such a humble legend.

Christopher Daniels is/was a TOP wrestler,who could wrestle,and have quality matches with anyone,the man was so smooth,made it look so effortless,he's a stand up guy,a top wrestler,and a true in ring great.

Daniels is the man...and pretty much always has been! Good to finally see him get what he deserves!

this guy is great, fair play

Christopher Daniels also plays a great character "Deacon" from Waterworld show at my job at Universal Studios Hollywood! (:-)

I have seen so many matches on tna of Christopher Daniels and he can take so much punishment and he doesn't look 47. ..legend

As of April 9, 2018, Christopher Daniels was ranked at #9 in Ring of Honor Wrestling. BTW, Daniels was in WWE for a while in 1998-2000.

WWE signed DDP at 45 years old and Sting at 55. Sure they had big WCW careers beforehand and didn't wrestle with WWE long but still they did. I would love to see Christopher Daniels in WWE even if he's in his late 40's to early 50's. I would love to see him have just one run.

Christopher daniels and aj styles were my favorite wrestlers and still are

If you put a picture of CD from 2005 next to a current picture of him, I can almost guarantee I wouldn't tell the difference

I can listen to CD all day his so intresting

he will always go down as one of the best wrestlers out side of wwe who should of been in the wwe, I'm glad to see him doing well for himself in ring of honor.

Good all around guy. I actually rode with him when we were both working for the EWF which was Jesse's Hernandez' promotion. Even then he had a good head on his shoulder and a good family man.

very good man.....very straight forward

One of the most entertaining performers to ever grace the ring

what a very likeable person

Christopher Daniels vs AJ Styles TNA Last man standing OMFG so good guys

'The Fallen Angel' is still one of my favorite wrestlers. A class act.

I saw him a few years back doing the Waterworld show at Universal Studios, none of my friends understood why I got excited when I saw his name

The man's a class act.

They Would Let You Christopher Daniels, Your One Of Best Superstar And I Would Be Happy To See You In WWE, In The Future

He would be my favorite 47 yr. old rookie for sure...Vince: how old is he again HHH?

what a nice guy! fair play dont look 47

Finally he is a World Champion It was a crime he never got a world title run before in Tna or in the golden days of ROH or even in Japan

CD seems like a really awesome guy! Like he is so real

#wwe needs this guy

A true legend.

CD IS AWESOME!

when he was on fire in tna those were the awesome days of tna

Well Chris is a nice guy

As of February 15, 2018, Christopher Daniels was ranked at #8 in Ring of Honor Wrestling.

Seems like an awesome dude. Don't know much about him, though. Never watched much TNA.
