The real news on WrestleMania weekend.
In September 2021, Bryan Danielson famously stated, "When I eat an apple, the tree doesn't die. Essentially, I'm eating the tree's sperm. I'm eating the sperm. It's tree semen. That's how they reproduce other trees. Most fruits are semen."
Being a true journalist, Hey! EW host RJ City asked Danielson about the quote and had plenty of follow up questions.
RJ: I have the direct quote, 'When I eat an apple, I'm essentially eating tree sperm.' What's worse is that I always see you backstage eating apples. Go do it in a bathroom stall.
BD: What is your problem with that?
RJ: It's just a lot to take in. I understand the point, but you said it in a way that was just a little too graphic for me.
BD: What's graphic about that? Are we not allowed to say sperm or semen? Does that invoke some sort of...
RJ: Ah yeah, the sex ed teacher over here.
BD: Listen, you and me baby ain't nothing but mammals.
RJ: Oh, so that you know, but your don't know Frasier, you don't know Cheers. What happened to you?
BD: That song was on the radio.
RJ: When it comes to apple seeds, do you swallow?
BD: No. I have, actually, swallowed apple seeds, yes.
RJ: I once went on a date
[long pause]
BD: You did what on a date?
RJ: There you go. You ever fuck a vegetable?
BD: Short answer, no. Long answer, we don't have the time.
Someone should do a long-form podcast with Bryan Danielson regarding his thoughts on the sexual nature of vegetables and if he's ever been intimate with one.
