I don't understand why these wrestlers who suffer these life threatening injuries insist on wrestling again. Is Daniel Bryan uneducated? Something like real estate or selling insurance seems much more mature at this stage in his life than trying to die in the ring.

That's cause DB didn't suffer a life threatening injury. He suffered a potential quality of life threatening injury. It's not the same thing. Wrestlers who have suffered life threatening injuries such as Edge, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Paige, Santino Morella, Cory Graves, etc.... don't wrestle anymore. It's the same in the NFL. There are life threatening injuries and ones that just threatening future mobility or quality of life.

It's the wrestlers or players call really. Some take the higher risks and others walk away as soon as the risk is slightly elevated. All comes down to how much you love performing whether that is in a ring or on a field.

If i can put a little bit of a personal spin. This upsets me in a good way

For someone who has been told no ( because of my disability). To hear someone who didn't back down and turned that no into a

Could not be happier for this guy. This is excellent news.

And think of all the awesome match ups we can get. Bryan vs:

AJ, Nakamura, KO, Sami Zayn, Adam Cole, Gargano, Black, Balor, Rollins,

and of course,

THE MIZ! Finally, we can get the payoff!

I wonder if they'll try to avoid/limit putting him back in the world title picture due to the risk of having him forfeit another title in the future if he gets hurt again (seems like they kinda did this with HBK when he came back from his first retirement). But like HBK, DB doesn't need to be in the world title picture to be a draw.

I can't see WWE putting him right back in the world title picture for the reasons you listed plus even through he's DB he still hasn't wrestled for two years. He shouldn't be getting a title shot right off the bat. They need to build up to it. Of course it's WWE, so who knows how fast they'll push him up the card???

Id say, as per usual if I was creative control, he fights alot of guys( get your mind out of the gutter) including Miz st Summerslam.

At royal rumble. Give him a midround number(12-23) and he wins it all.

Walks into WM against the SD champion and we get the payoff with him winning the belt.

He loves wrestling. A ton of occupations people still perform when doctor's say they shouldn't but 99% jobs don't include the rush someone gets in his field. Steve Austin was in worse shape than DB but the doctor's cleared him.

Hearing Bryan/McMahon vs Owens/Zyan
Im seeing the sam. Already have Owens and Zayne working the fired angle at house shows. Gotta give Owens and Zayne credit. They've gone full Kayfabe down to their twitter accounts. FightSteenFight. Its not often we see kayfabe anymore. Top heel in the WWE at the moment imo. Mis may be second
