Sublime Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 In response to Fowler.That and that Bryan loves her more than (or atleast as much as) he loves wrestling so that he'd likely at least listen to Brie's concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more like hoping family means as much to him as it should. Thus far, it seems like if he does get back in the ring, it will be over Brie's strong objections. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure the last time he thinks about actively wrestling instead of getting his paycheck the way he is, is the first time he holds his daughter. At least I'd like think that's how it's going to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iron Yuppie Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Big E. is a main-event talent, dammit. Yes, he's a comedic act -- but so was The Rock. Maybe I'm going overboard here, but I do see a lot of Rock comparison. Both guys are incredibly charismatic, funny, look like they could kick anyone's ass and have the legitimate backgrounds as former high-level college football players to back it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Big E needs to stop doing that spear through the ropes and splash on the apron, though; those two moves are going to seriously injure him before long. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 He might not WANT TO, but DB could easily the kind of light match that Porky was doing before his latest injuries. No real bumping, a tope where 5 guys catch him and comedy. Imagine teaming him with Microman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 1 hour ago, L_W_P said: As talented as Bryan is and for as much passion as he has he is honestly a moron if he plans on getting back in the ring. I just remember Bryan being out for a while with concerns for his neck and brain and then coming back to do this in a throw away match on a random Smackdown - I would rather be The Miz than Daniel Bryan. There I said it. We are all thinking it anyway. Miz > Bryan I enjoy wrestling for the art of wrestling. I enjoy Danielson's style of art over Miz's style. I wouldn't choose to be either because I never had aspirations to be a wrestler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanChessgame Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 5 hours ago, Zakk_Sabbath said: I said this last time the idea of Bryan wrestling outside of WWE came up, and I'll say it again: while the safety and health of the performers should be paramount, I have no doubt that there are many, many, many guys who work every single night that wouldn't pass similar testing. Id also guess that would be the case historically. This is what's surprised me the most about Bryan's condition. I've been watching him ever since ROH started up and there have always been lots of his peers who worked much less safe and had tons more flying, head drops, and unnecessarily stiff repertoires who are still going strong. Just look at Sami and Owens. The stuff those guys would do regularly, especially to eachother in those ladder matches, was a hell of a lot worse than most of Bryan's body of work. But I guess it only takes one or two wrong moves to land just the right way to do some serious damage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess it only takes one or two wrong moves to land just the right way to do some serious damage. Exactly. Going back a couple pages, think about Ziggler's concussion history, for example. The other glaring example, at least to me, was when the Dudley Boyz and Dreamer had a mini-run last year or the year before. Lest we forget "Legends" appearances year after year. Sure, Hogan or Flair or Taker's style was much safer than Bryan's, but if concussions are now as routine as we are led to believe, then its difficult to think that they never suffered any in their respective 30+ year careers that were, maybe not as severe, but at least as numerous (if not frequent) as Bryan's.

sydneybrown Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 That really is one of the most ass-backwards things I have ever read. "A shit promotion is kicking our ass. Our solution is to hire them and beat the shit out of them. We might even recklessly throw them off a bus. Kinda depends on if the talent is paying attention. If that promotion's fans see us murdering them, CLEARLY they will see we are much better than them and will blindly jump to our side. No way will they tell us to fuck off..."

caley Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 It worked for some fans! When Nitro came here, my brother and cousin bought nose-bleed seats, then some random WCW guy approached them and gave them seats directly behind the announcers (They almost got ran over by the Harris Bros on a run-in from the crowd!), while they were waiting for the show to start, though, some guy came up to them and said "I heard ICP is going to be here! If you chant their name all night, when they come out, they'll give you candy and other prizes!" and proceeded to chant "ICP! ICP!" all night. For the record, ICP were NOT on that show.
