“It’s not only hard for the kids, it’s hard on my wife, too, because she’s not even a stay-at-home mom — which is a hard job as it is — she runs three companies, and she’s got her own wine tasting thing in Napa,” he says.

His wife, Brie Garcia, understands the grueling life of a pro wrestler, because she was one, too. She performed for World Wrestling Entertainment for more than a decade under the name Brie Bella. As part of the Bella Twins, alongside sister Nikki, Brie was a key part of the women’s division and anchored a pair of reality shows about the real lives of female wrestlers (or, at least, as “real” as pro wrestlers on a reality show can be).

Garcia met Danielson when he also wrestled for WWE, under the name Daniel Bryan, and they married in 2014. He spent the majority of his career at WWE and became a global icon as a fan-favorite underdog who took over pop culture with his “Yes!” chant and eventually became world champion. But his time at the top was cut short: Danielson was forced to retire in 2016 due to concussion-related issues.
