Several dirt sheets are reporting Daniel Bryan suffered a concussion that has officially ended his in ring career during a match with Sheamus on Smackdown after Wrestlemania.
Does anyone actually believe this... It isn't backed up by any facts, and looks to be speculation based on Bret Harts recent comments.

WFigs as a whole would have imploded if this was true.
I'm guessing no, since he would have announced his full retirement when he relenquished the IC Title instead of just taking time off.

I can see something seriously being wrong with Daniel but I don't think this is it. We will find out soon enough I'm sure.

The articles scream horse crap. Claiming he was working while concussed on the euro tour.. Which I think they pulled him from. |

His advertised IC title matches all got changed to six-man tags on the tour, where he barely got in the ring. Then they sent him home. |

I don't see him even having any matches if it were concussions I don't see him even having any matches if it were a broken freakin' neck, either. Maybe CM Punk was telling the truth about the doctors. Or maybe Bryan hid the injuries from everyone until he couldn't hide them anymore. How long after Bret got hurt did he officially retire? |

Idk the concussion stuff is serious. Anyway Bret got hurt at Starrcade, and retired the following October I think. Edit.. Not that neck issues aren't serious or anything. Just WWE currently has former talents suing them claiming they had to work after concussions. |

Edit.. Not that neck issues aren't serious or anything. Just WWE currently has former talents suing them claiming they had to work after concussions. And there's your answer. There's only one logical reason why WWE hasn't come out and really said what his injury is. Bryan was rushed back into the ring way too early, either by WWE or on his own volition, and somewhere during that period he must have had a concussion situation. I'm assuming he didn't think it was serious, because history has shown that most pro athletes underestimate the effects of head trauma, and in his mind he wanted to keep working. And if somehow he worked dates by hiding his symptoms then WWE would look terrible so they can't just come out and say he's dealing with concussions. |

After watching his DVD, he worked with the broken neck to finish out the story with the authority. He was told by the doctors to take it easy upon return. He seemed to think it was funny on the DVD when he said things like his first night back he was in two ten minute matches and stuff.. Didn't seem like it was his choice either. |

I don't know what the injury he has is, but I just hope he gets better.

Eventually an official statement will be made on his behalf or the WWE's behalf about him and his brand, so nothing is official until then.

Really hope he is fine, but it was reckless of him to still bump like he used to before the injury. I wouldnt blame the doctors or the WWE for that matter, remember even tho Punk said all that stuff about it, he could of at any moment (and Cabana pointed that one out) said "No, I'll rest, Vince" but he didnt and he had his reasons. I am really worried about Bryan, hopefully we know something soon.

If Daniel has to retire and never gets the run he deserved in WWE it would be it's own wrestling tragedy

I don't see him even having any matches if it were concussions I don't see him even having any matches if it were a broken freakin' neck, either. Maybe CM Punk was telling the truth about the doctors. Or maybe Bryan hid the injuries from everyone until he couldn't hide them anymore. How long after Bret got hurt did he officially retire? Bret got injured in December at Starrcade, he then wrestled all through the rest of December and into the end of January before finally stopping right before the WCW Souled Out PPV. I think Daniel Bryan is probably done. The reason why they haven't said anything yet is because they are probably taking a lot of concussion tests to make sure. I remember a few years ago, Sidney Crosby was out pretty much the entire year for the NHL season because of a concussion situation. The sports franchises take that stuff a lot more seriously now than they once did. So my guess is the WWE is doing the same with Daniel Bryan. But he really should retire. A bad neck, concussions now, he's been WWE World Champion a few times, he's done it all, there's nothing left for him to do now except enjoy sexual relations with his hot wife, Brie! |

It hasn't "officially" ended his career but it is reportedly career threatening. I hope I haven't seen the last of Daniel Bryan but I don't want him to end up permanently crippled for the sake of our entertainment. I imagine we'll get more concrete word on what's going to happen with his career around the time his book comes out.

At first it sounded like the situation going into WM30 was an arm/shoulder issue which Bryan has had for a decade. After Mania it was discovered he had the neck issue causing the nerve damage. After the surgery like happens with many of these instances the strength did not return as quickly as the doctors thought.
All of that seemed normal and fine. Like with John Morrison and Payton Manning eventually he healed and came back. But then suddenly he was gone and nobody is saying why. The WWE will not say it is related to his past injuries. If it was and they had the medical tests to show he was healthy at Mania and the weakness just reoccurred the company would be covered.
If it is a concussion and their testing did not discover it, hiding it could cost them millions. If Bryan lied about it or covered it up as to not go back on the shelf they are covered and should have put him in front of a camera to talk about how dangerous concussions really are. If testing discovered something else going on which is more troublesome (health issues regarding heart, lungs or cancer) then get him off TV and let him get it taken care of.
No word on it makes it seem so much worse now.
