Maroon's rep took a big hit because he was the NFL doctor that said "CTE was exaggerated" So now you have the WWE being sued for head trauma AND Vince's concerns about certain people being injured "in his ring" (see also Kurt Angle) Also - they decided that Bryan was going to their line in the sand for... reasons All that pretty much leads to what Fowler said 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Wasn't there something about a "new" test that he had done, that he failed? Something that no one else had even been told to get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 My first impressions, without reading anything else yet ... 1) Guess who isn't going to be #allin, FUCK YOU CODY, I'LL SHOW YOU "BURY THE BEAR"!!! 2) If WWE fast-tracks a Miz/Bryan match for 'mania, I can forgive all the other dumb shit we've had to deal with to this point.

That was the test that convinced him to retire But over the two years - his brain activity has improved tremendously (it seems like Bryan is crediting the hyperbolic chamber treatment stuff) Meltzer also said that there were a few doctors who were willing to put their reputations on the line to go to bat for Bryan and it would have gotten to the point with Maroon of where it would have come off almost as "LALALALALA NOT LISTENING!!!"

Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr. Danielson vs Ibushi. Danielson vs...OK, I'll stop. The point is I'm aware this is deeply selfish and also to be frank probably would be more dangerous to his health, but I can't help it. Also I was totally going to cancel my WWE Network sub because I've used it to watch one episode of Nitro since the Royal Rumble & am otherwise completely out of contemporary WWE at this point. Despite one of the most exciting rosters the WWE have had, because the booking is just not interesting enough for my tastes. But now I guess I can't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Hero Morganti Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I want a nice natural progression with the end game being D Bry vs Miz at either the end of the year PPV for the IC Title or the Rumble, leading to D Bry vs Nak for the IC Title at Mania.

Eivion Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I'm happy for him though I will always be a bit worried as well. Will be interesting to see what WWE does with him. The roster has changed so much with guys getting better and new talent coming in. I just hope we get a big match with him and Miz at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagan Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 First for the company, right? Have they ever cleared anyone they put on the retirement list? Also, IF the results are true and he's perfectly fine and not like "fucked up but probably won't die" fine then he doesn't have to change his style much. I mean, if you want to get didactic, no wrestler should be doing flying headbutts and being dropped on their head but Bryan trying to wrestle a tentative safe style is probably more likely to get him jacked up.

Black Angel Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Don't have anything to add but I'm happy for him. But Bryan, leave the diving headbutt at home ok? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
