Minor news items that don't deserve a thread

Daniel Bryan really won't accept WWE doctors opinion will he?

 

Noticed he's gave an interview to Daily Progress saying he reckons he will wrestle again and that all "the real concussion specialists" think he is fine.

The difference with Bryan seems to be the seizures he had disclosed from a few years back so I see why WWE doctors won't clear him, but I agree with him to a point.

 

There's no way he doesn't look at what WWE did with Orton last month and think "what the fuck". WWE are still willing to use the likes of Tommy Dreamer and there's no way the likes of Shinsuke Nakamura (and well, every heavyweight in New Japan ever) don't have undocumented concussion histories similair to Bryan.

 

It's cold to say but if he wants to wrestle I'd be pay to see it. This one is right in our face so I see why people want to to treat it differently, but wrestling is a fucked business, most of the wrestlers in the world are shortening their lives for our entertainment, theres no avoiding it. CM "87 conussions" Punk had an MMA fight last week and we all watched it. It's his body at the end of the day.

Between him saying this and recent events on TV I'm starting to by into this maybe meaning he's cleared?

 

It's probably still not going to happen but I just can't think where else they'd be going with all this.

 

He also doesn't seem the sort to be vocally critical of the WWE.

Unless WWE clear him I can't see him wrestling ever again, especially if he's still shacked up with Brie who seems to be dead against the idea of him wrestling and taking unnecessary risks, he must be on a decent wage in his current role too. Would Bryan push for his release/not renew in his current circumstances? can't see it.

Apparently Bryan had signed up college classes before being asked to come back for the Smackdown job. He was ready for the next stage of his life. It probably makes it ten times harder to move on when you have to go back every week to be part of the show. Obviously he is under contract so it's nice that he is probably still getting paid big money for little work.

 

I really do wonder when the contract runs out though just how close he will get to perhaps doing a few matches on New Japan or somewhere just to get it out of his system.
