Raw is Grateful 2-8-16

[MGFanJay]

Hard to believe that Bryan's WWE run was only around six years - and really about three on TV without injury. He did a ton in that time. The show itself wasn't much other than Bryan's speech, but it was an amazing speech. Just an all-time classic about him being a grateful person because of wrestling, because of the fans, and because everything he has - good and bad, he has because of pro wrestling. He met his wife due to wrestling and appreciates every fan who cheered for him.

Dear Mr. "Bryan":

I am too.

Thanks!

I had this weird feeling when he was first standing there with his eyes closed that even Brie had no idea if he was going to go through with it.

 

Shit got pretty real, though when he laid out that he had three concussions in his first five months wrestling and said it not like it was unusual or bad luck but was just what happens in wrestling.

[NikoBaltimore]

I really gotta do something about the dust in this place. That's it, dust.

But damn, mentioning his dad did us in. But if you're going to retire, can't ask for much better than the way he went out.

[piranesi]

I know there are some sick kids who are eyeing that one kid with the really kinky blonde wig. 

 

That kid is going to sleep with one eye open tonight.

[Craig H]

Heartbroken, but happy.

 

Thank you, Daniel Bryan.

[Death From Above]

That was special. Whatever else I've got out of WWE since coming back in November, that made it worthwhile.

[JCM]

I'm glad to see Bryan go out on top. It's better to get out too soon rather than too late. Bryan did more than 99.9% of the wrestlers that have ever laced up a pair of boots.

I wish I could say I was surprised at fans booing him for not willing to risk further brain damage (after he actually explained his brain damage) and mentioning his wife, but I'm not. Wrestling fans sure know how to be the pieces of trash you expect them to be and ruin a great moment for someone they "love". 

[Big Fresh]

Damn, he went so long my DVR cut out right as he started talking about his Dad. I'll have to wait for the whole thing to show up on Youtube. This is not a complaint about him going long, by the way.

 

Any other night, we'd all be creaming ourselves over that Henry/New Day stuff.

[Nice Guy Eddie]

My place didn't get that dusty until he mentioned donating to Wigs for Kids. Not bawling my eyes out, but definitely watery eyes.

Please stop. Jesus.

I think they were trying to boo concussions.

Good speech by Bryan at the end, its unfortunate that his wife yet again wants to use a seminole moment in her husbands career to try and get herself over. I guess this is the last time she can leech off Bryan's heat and with the match coming up at Fastlane, it makes sense for WWE to send her out. Connor McGregor's girlfriend is just as hungry for the camera than Brie, but she is so much less endearing.

[Niners Fan in CT]

Was that Titus and Vince fucking around?

 

The story about his Dad got me, well everything got me.  Great speech.  Awesome wrestler. Tremendous career.  I think maybe next year he goes in the Hall of Fame. 

 

The second best part of the night was Brock doing shit like this.

Or, ya know, she loves her husband and went out there because of that.

[Greggulator]

I, like most of you no doubt, have taken crap from people for watching men pretend to fight each other. But tonight's one of those times where I feel bad for people who don't like professional wrestling. There is no other form of entertainment where fans feel as connected to the performers.

Are you in gimmick mode or just being an asshole.

From the Detroit Fairgrounds to Met Life Stadium I saw him live. #ThankYouDanielBryan

What the fuck is wrong with you?

This is fucking insane. In the history of Hollywood Cibernetico posts, this is most Hollywood Cibernetico ass post ever.

[Death From Above]

That Brock GIF is awesome. He is King Kong.

[Matt D]

Wrestling is such a brutal horrible, wonderful mistress. It's given us so much over the years and taken so much away. 

 

I hope it's a happy ending for him. 

 

As for the rest of us.

 

You've watched this in the last two days. Watch this again. It's a panacea. There's still so much joy in this messed up, stupid thing we all love.

There aren't enough words to express the level of problems you have.

If you've gotta ask, you know the answer.

[Godfrey]

A great speech to end a great career for a guy who really deserves it all and probably more.
