New WWE World Champion Daniel Bryan posted the following on Twitter, discussing his title victory at the WWE TLC pay-per-view last night:
“Six years ago CM Punk and I wrestled a 45 minute match in Florida in front of probably 36 people. It’s fun watching us pretend to be superstars when we’re really just a couple of Indy schmucks.”
As noted late last night, CM Punk also tweeted this photo of he and Daniel Bryan holding their WWE titles backstage at the WWE TLC pay-per-view:

Punk also tweeted:
Two Indy schmucks didn’t do so bad, Eh?
It’s definitely interesting to see two former ROH talents currently holding both WWE titles right now.
