All he needs is a couple Z-Packs and they'll clear him. (Hope nobody made the joke yet, haven't looked at the other pages)

From a legal perspective, if the 10th doctor is their doctor, it should. If something were to happen, and a suit be brought against WWE, "well the others said it was fine." won't cut it as a defense. Is the WWE not in a position to make one of their Professional wrestlers sign a waiver clearing the WWE of all wrong doing? It just seems a bit ridiculous that there is no way around this. They easily could get an indemnification agreement whereby Daniel Bryan agrees to hold WWE harmless, but, and this is merely speculation, you have an instance where a wrestler who suffered from numerous concussions ended up murdering his family and committing suicide. Daniel Bryan may agree to hold people harmless, but if he were to go down that route because of dementia or whatever, they'd be liable. Extreme example, I know. But, you cannot think for one second that that isn't in their minds as a potential risk. Further, concussion injury is currently a hot topic in sports and sports entertainment. WWE is seemingly priding itself on how strict its concussion protocols are. It would be a terrible precedent for them to just let a guy sign a waiver. The backlash alone if anything happened to Bryan would be huge. Media would go after them. Sure, from a legal perspective there is a way around it. From a business perspective, they run the risk of being negatively portrayed and villified. Summary: Legally they could get an indemnification agreement from Bryan. Business-wise, there is no way they can get this waiver.

I don't believe anyone did after a cursory glance, but it would have made the joke funnier if you didn't have to make the disclaimer. Just saying

Well didn't you know, WWE's got the smartest doctor on earth, I guess he knows something the others don't.
Dreamer admits to memory loss due to concussions, he's cleared. Process that

The waiver idea is silly. Jim Ross explained his opinion on the Daniel Bryan situation excellently on the observer recently. You should give it a listen.

wwe never wanted to make Daniel Bryan a top guy to start with so now this is the perfect excuse not to use him Have you seen his DVD. He slams Michael Cole for the way they did him on commentary. I haven't seen it what did he say? I feel like cole was shooting on daniel bryan when he would run him down on commentary

I am now on the other side of this argument. bravo.

If I was Bryan and nothing is really wrong with him, I'd go to every top doctor on earth and get cleared just to make WWE look bad. I don't care who their doctor is, if he's getting a green light everywhere else then he should be allowed to do his job. And to the people who can't see how this could possibly be an agenda with Reigns, seriously...I can write a book explaining it. It's really not that unthinkable. it's a business move just like any other the WWE does in its best interest. It's about more than wrestling, it's money So you're going to write a book about how WWE would be making less money by paying Daniel Bryan to wrestle instead of paying him to sit at home?

How dare WWE care for his health. Evil bastards. Orton has blown out his damn shoulder so many times yet they have him comeback after a few months. Ziggler has had concussions but he's been cleared. Those are two that come straight to mind. They just don't want him on TV because they don't want the focus off of who they want to be the face of the company. This age doesn't have multiple main eventers. We have 1 and then we have a mid carder who challenges them in feuds. It's stupid. My mom works in politics. This stuff isn't make believe, things like this happen where they hold people back, etc. Doesn't matter what the business is. Shady things occur no mater what and this is one of them.

Pretty clear to me that they do not want him wrestling, especially as Reigns' push is getting shitted on by the crowd, and bringing Bryan back will only make it worse. If they can clear Tommy Dreamer to wrestle, I'm sure that they can clear Daniel Bryan, especially after 9 out of 10 doctors have said that he should be cleared. Ridiculous..

All Bryan needs to do is walk out from WWE and head back the indies, he'll make much more money than he's ever made and he'll be the biggest star.

I remember Cole constantly slamming Bryan for being an indy guy. Its absolutely hilarious looking back at it now because half the current roster are "indy guys". Bryan really broke the mold of that label because being an "indy guy" hasnt been looked down upon since.

Pretty sure Nakamura is signing a 3 Year Contract. He'll be back in NJPW. And Bryan will be waiting for him.

Cole is on the DVD claiming Daniel Bryan strived to be better because of how he talked about him.. sigh.

Why would Bryan go to New Japan, a company that uses the fact that it has the stiffest, most violent, hard hitting roster in the world as a selling point? With his history of neck injuries and concussions, that would just be dumb, no matter how much they'd pay him.
