HHH On If He's Afraid Of Daniel Bryan, Not Accepting His Challenge, Bryan Being "A Sawed Off Midget"

Michael Cole's weekly interview with Triple H is back this week after taking a hiatus last week. Here are some highlights, you can watch the full interview above:

- Triple H talked about Michael Cole taking a shot at him on Twitter for not doing the interview last week, and noted that he was very busy for NXT. Cole said that it was convenient because it was following Daniel Bryan's challenge.

- Cole asked what the true reason was for Triple H turning down Bryan's challenge for WrestleMania. HHH answered that he's very busy as the COO of WWE. Cole noted that he's had other high profile matches while being COO. Triple H said that you can't compare a match with Bryan to matches with A+ players like Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker. Triple H said "there's a world of difference," and reiterated that Bryan was a B+ player and it would take a lot more than that for him to compete at WrestleMania.

- Cole said that fans want to see the match, and Triple H said that he knows that, but you have to "be careful what you wish for." Triple H noted that the silence would be deafening at WrestleMania after Triple H destroys him. Cole said that if he's that sure, then why not just end it at WrestleMania, and Triple H once again stated that he doesn't need to bother with a B+ player. He said that Bryan is good for business, and he doesn't need to end him at 'Mania.

- Triple H called Bryan a "185 pound sawed off midget." He said that if he wants to end Daniel Bryan he'll just fire him, he doesn't need to do it in front of millions of people. He admitted that people "love the little guy" and he has value.

- Cole asked Triple H if he was scared of Daniel Bryan, and Triple H asked if he was serious. Cole noted that everyone thinks that he's afraid of Bryan. Triple H said his answer is the same response to Daniel Bryan's question... "No." That ended the interview.
