Daniel Bryan in bad physical shape

There are a lot of other ways to use him if he can't wrestle. I just don't see anything that suggests he'd be good at commentary. I think it'd be cool if the "Board of directors" made him commissioner to act as a foil for the authority, much like HBK and Foley both did after their first retirements.

It's coming out now that it's a concussion. And a really bad one. And that there is actually a really good chance he may never come back. And he may have worked the ladder match at Mania with symptoms. I hope the guy is okay for his own health, regardless of whether he can ever wrestle again.

I find the report from the Observer on this a little bit weird. It said that he suffered the concussion from Sheamus before Wrestlemania... but Sheamus didn't return until AFTER Wrestlemania.

Live show maybe?

I believe Bryan was going against Barrett at live shows, could be wrong, but if he did get a concussion before WM it would've been by Barrett.

And there was that match after Mania where Sheamus did that power bomb out of a suplex move he does now and dropped Bryan on his head. Maybe they meant that?

Or there was the Smackdown where Sheamus threw Bryan out of the ring and Bryan caught the corner of the announce table and busted himself wide open.

Not sure if anyone talked about this but last week Bret Hart made some interesting comments in a "state of the WWE" to Sports Illustrated. Here's what he said about Bryan:

Quote:

“Daniel Bryan is finished,” said Hart. “He’ll never wrestle again. I don’t think he knows it yet. I feel terrible about Daniel Bryan. For all intents and purposes, he had the exact same thing happen to him that happened to me after Bill Goldberg kicked me in the head [ending Hart’s career]. “One day, you learn it’s over. Doctors tell you that you can’t wrestle and you’ll never wrestle again. I lost millions of dollars because of that. I pray that it’s not the same for Daniel Bryan.”....... “I saw him in a lot of his matches after he came back from the injury, and he was taking suplexes on the back of his head, powerbombs, and other really dangerous moves,” said Hart. “I know he wanted to test it out, but I think he may have pushed himself too hard. He’s like Dynamite Kid in the sense that they’re both tough and neither wanted to admit that injuries got the best of them. He’s finished forever, but I don’t think he’s even realized that. He’s probably thinking, ‘Maybe it will get better in a few months,’ but unfortunately, I don’t think it will.”

I read that. Speculation on the part of Hart, but he does speak from experience as post-concussion symptoms ended his career. We don't know the extent of Bryan's injury as WWE has been tight-lipped and Bryan himself hasn't said much. He's been traveling and obviously doing Tough Enough, so he can get around and function, but we don't know what his physical limitations are.

I hope he's able to come back, but certainly understand if that's not in the cards for him.
