Why did Bryan Danielson said “no” to Moxley

Moxley said that the moment he mentioned his book to Bryan, he immediately responded by saying no.
“And then I remember I actually asked Bryan Danielson, who’d written a WWE book, which was good, I thought. And I was like, ‘Yo, if you could go back in time, would you do that book?’ He said no instantly.”
Moxley added, “He’s like, ‘It wasn’t exactly how I wanted it to be,’ and I was like, that’s all I needed to hear. That’s what my instinct was telling me, so I told them no, and they’re like, ‘Really?’ And it was a lot of money on the table, but I was just like, ‘No, it makes me feel really uncomfortable. I don’t want to do it, so I’m not doing it.’ And that was it.” Moxley said.
Well, it would have been difficult to pen down his actual thoughts on WWE if he was still employed over there. He further detailed various aspects of his life.
