Danielson has spent the majority of his career without an overt character in favor of becoming popular with the fans through his monikers, signature mannerisms and wrestling ability, while his attire has varied as well, with the majority of his tenure wearing a pair of short trunks, but also ventured into wearing a mask for a time in Japan as an extension of his American Dragon persona.

A notable part of Danielson's persona is his mannerisms and the reaction he inspires from the crowd during the course of his matches that include:
During his time in ROH, Danielson made his way to the ring to his entrance song ("The Final Countdown") and once in the ring he stood on the top turnbuckle and sang the refrain along with the fans in attendance.
His theme song is now a variation of "Ride of the Valkyries".

After winning the ROH World Championship, Danielson displayed traits of a villain-like persona, starting to behave more aggressively and threatening to the fans as well as taking more liberties with the rules, but despite his rulebreaking character he still retained a certain level of popularity with the fans as well as his upholding of the company's Code of Honor, ROH's storyline rules of wrestler conduct, allowing him to perform as a more neutral character.

During his initial reign as ROH World Champion, telling the ring announcer to add an extra note about him appertaining to the current circumstances around his match—this was generally insulting the crowd or his opponent.

At the beginning of Danielson's ROH matches the crowd chanted "You're gonna get your fucking head kicked in!"
at Danielson's opponent.

After winning WWE's World Heavyweight Championship, Bryan began shouting "Yes!"
repeatedly on his way to the ring and after defeating an opponent, crediting mixed martial arts fighter Diego Sanchez with the inspiration.
This chant grew in popularity and has been even heard outside WWE events such as at Major League Baseball, National Hockey League and National Basketball Association games as well as at music concerts, in particular at Andrew W.K. concerts in both Glasgow and Manchester, England.
After turning into a villainous character at the start of 2012, Bryan slowly turned against the fans and after WrestleMania XXVIII in April he began chanting "No!"
instead of "Yes!".
Bryan claimed that the fans were mocking him by chanting "Yes!"
so he chanted "No!"
back at them, but this then further encouraged the crowd to chant "Yes!"
to annoy him as he was a villain.
Shortly after turning back into a heroic character, Bryan began saying "Yes!"
again, but would still shout "No!"
when in a negative situation or showing disdain towards a critique which also involved crowd participation.

Bryan's "Yes!"
chant again entered popular culture in late 2013 and early 2014.
During Michigan State's regular-season victory over arch-rival Michigan, Spartans guard Travis Jackson celebrated a touchdown with a "Yes!"
chant.
On January 7, the university honored the football team, fresh off victory in the Rose Bowl, during halftime of the men's basketball home game against Ohio State.
Jackson again led Bryan's chant, this time with the entire home crowd, especially the student section, joining in.
The event quickly went viral and drew extensive coverage on ESPN's SportsCenter.
One contributor to Yahoo!
Sports speculated that this event and the associated media coverage led WWE to turn Bryan away from The Wyatt Family.
In the wake of Bryan's championship victory at WrestleMania XXX, the Pittsburgh Pirates began using the "Yes!"
chant as a rallying cry, gradually replacing the Zoltan gesture the Pirates had been using the previous two years and it is said that Pirates first baseman Gaby Sánchez, a huge wrestling fan, was behind the team using the "Yes!"
chants.
In May, members of the San Francisco Giants started using the chant and hand gesture to celebrate home runs.
This led to Bryan performing the chant at a Giants playoff game and actively supporting the team all the way to the World Series, which the Giants won against the Kansas City Royals i
