Sounds like encouraging Bryan to put his health at risk to get some fresh matches

I think it was a part of it.
Yeah, because baseball and football stadiums full of people in other sports were yelling for Morrisson, MVP, and Zack Ryder.
Daniel Bryan had the World Champion SF Giants doing the "Yes" chant and the SB winning Seahawks doing it.
Dude was being called to basketball games, football games, college games, etc. . .. You're seriously comparing him to those guys who yeah were popular, but they didn't penetrate pop culture like Bryan did.
And it wasn't their idea to give him titles. They wanted Batista/Orton in Wrestlemania and if CM Punk didn't walk out and the fans didn't hijack the Royal Rumble, dude wouldn't have got the belt at Wrestlemania.
Really? Even if they're not allowed to main event their shows as champion and theirs another World Championship belt?
Know what else happened to the protected Roman Reigns? He got pinned clean in a WrestleMania main event that everyone thought he was gonna win.
Guess who that didn't happen to?
Ha, getting his ass whooped by Lesnar for a half an hour then having Rollins pin him on some sneaky shyt is not a "clean pin". Do you watch wrestling?
How could that even be considered a clean pin in any form or fashion?
Did Roman get curb stomped and then pinned or not?
He kicked out of 3 F5s by Lesnar and was "tricked" by Rollins.
That's like saying Hogan was "pinned clean" by Yokozuna or something because he got to leg drop him and pin him.

I don't believe he's done. He will definitely take a year or two off tho. when you think about it, how many guys on WWE's roster would be able to pass the last round of tests Bryan took that ultimately led to his decision? They probably wouldn't even have a roster.
If Bryan comes back after revealing seizure causing brain lesions due to brain damage from wrestling, there would not be enough
in the world.

Yes to some, but that doesn't mean it won't happen..I know it was a different time and era, but Austin almost died the night before Wrestlemania 19 and he not only still wrestled, but put on a classic, sooooIf Bryan comes back after revealing seizure causing brain lesions due to brain damage from wrestling, there would not be enough

Point is, Bryan's said that he's been dealing with the seizures for some time but had been hiding it from WWE, they aren't something recent. He's been anticipating a return to the ring all year all the way up until last week regardless of that. You telling me he can't have another match or 2 if he tone down his style?
He could, sure. Edge could have another match if he really wanted to. Neither of them should, though.
Here's the other shyt that's funny tho'... it wasnt their decision?
So you, the fans, walked into the building and physically forced Vince to book Mania XXX the way y'all wanted it? Everything that goes on TV is their decision, whether it was due to fan response or not. Let's be real breh- that wouldn't have been the first time the fans were crazy for someone and they didn't get the push that the fans wanted. I used Morrison, MVP, Ryder as examples to say that if Bryan was being 'buried' like y'all swore he was, he woulda been moved DOWN the card, not UP the muhfukka.
I watch wrestling a great deal... actually been watching since 1987... that's what makes it so funny to me when people act shocked that WWE would dare push a wrestler strong because they want them to become main eventers. It makes me think THEY haven't been watching wrestling that long, because that's what they've always done. How many matches did Ultimate Warrior ever lose clean? Anybody got footage of him taking Rude Awakenings and Perfect Plexes? Steve Austin was stunning a million MFs a week when he was heading towards Mania XIV. Only in recent years do people act like booking a wrestler to be unstoppable is some shyt that came outta nowhere...

In his latest podcast, Meltzer said that he regretted how his piece on Bryan made it seem he had no other choice but to retire after getting the latest results. He exlpained how D-Bry is mostly fine, all his doctors knew about his seizures (and the last one he had was 4 years ago) and he COULD work again.
BUT, the rational choice was to retire and avoid any more damage. Basically get out while he still can be a functional person without any major risk of ending up with CTE or dementia.
If he comes back or not will depend on how much he wants to wrestle and if his brain has healed.
Right now I'd say there's pretty mucho zero chance of him coming back to wrestling. Maybe he'll end up as a trainer, but I don't see him doing much else.

Your TSC World Champion
They gave him a return last year and he didnt tone down his style what makes u think he will now

Who is y'all?
I'm not a Daniel Bryan fan at all. Nor was I ever. I am more of a WWE realist and after reading books about that company and listening to hundreds of shoot interviews over the years know that they're not above doing horrible shyt for petty reasons and Vince McMahon is basically insane.
What I'm saying is they TRIED to bury Daniel Bryan, which is why they put him in that horrid Wyatt family storyline where he's losing clean to Bray and left him out of the Royal Rumble 2 years ago.
The issue is that fans hijacked shows and did not let storylines progress. Do you not remember what happened last year when Roman won the Royal Rumble?
Do you not remember #CancelWWENetwork?
The fans did not allows them to bury Bryan. They tried, but the fans were literally ready to riot after the Royal Rumble and with the Network being new, they had to listen to the fans in order to avoid a total shyt storm.
Weirdly enough, none of this would've happened if CM Punk hadn't walked away. If he hadn't, the fans probably wouldn't have clung to Bryan the way they did, but something about CM Punk walking away AND them underrating Bryan made the fans snap and they haven't been right since.
How you can compare what we've seen the past 2 years to anything we've ever seen is beyond me. The fans are pissed as hell.

Also, I've never said that WWE haven't made people unstoppable. Hell, Hulk Hogan didn't get pinned for like a decade. That's not the issue.
The issue is WHO they make unstoppable.
The fans don't think Roman is WORTHY of being unstoppable, because they don't see anything special about the guy and they think that Vince is just in love with his looks and his familial bloodline.
That's a fair assessment to make. It's just like the fans not thinking Ben Affleck was worthy of playing Batman. If you're asking the fans to pay their hard earned money, they have a right to reject mediocre talent.

I'm just in awe of you WWE stans who defend everything they do in spite of hearing all the stories Jim Cornette, Jim Ross, and tons of wrestlers, announcers, and people who've worked for them over the years saying that Vince McMahon is insane. He does hold back talent regardless of how talented or "over" guys are, and the working environment is toxic as fukk. Why would you defend a company like that?
I just read about Mr. Kennedy talking about how he was buried for chewing gum at one point while he worked there. Titus O'Neal was just suspended for 90 days for grabbing Vince McMahon's arm, so Stephanie could go first
Brehhhh... ah man, this has been an exhausting week on the board where we talk about the TV show with predetermined match results and scripted storylines... everything's so serious and uptight lately...
Look man, I'll be honest, I just don't give a shyt. In order for me to feel some kinda way now as an adult, I'd have to go back and get tight about why Ricky Steamboat never got another solid push after '87, and why Razor never got the title but Yokozuna did, and all types of shyt, breh. Sometimes shyt just doesn't go the way that we as fans want it to go, cause at the end of the day, we don't make the damn calls. Vince probably is a nut and makes irrational decisions, but it doesn't affect me at all. It doesn't make us 'stans' if we don't think it's that big a deal to complain about. That's just the first thing MFs jump to when someone doesn't agree with them.
Poster 1: Man, they been buryin' CM Punk since day one!
Poster 2: Breh, CM Punk won every title they had, that ain't a burial...
Poster 1: Ahhhh, you fukkin' staaaaaan!
Poster 1: WWF is racist as fukk breh, look at Kamala
Poster 2: That's not a WWF gimmick tho', it's his gimmick that he did his whole career
Poster 1: Ohhhh, you must be Vince's shoe shine nikka, how much does he pay you?!?
Like fukk facts, fukk the right to an opinion, fukk everything unless you're goin' with the grain... it's just not that deep to me, b. I'm not "defending" anyone. I either agree with something, or I disagree.

CM Punk was pushed hard at Rumble 2014 and the crowd still turned on the match BIG TIME when Rey came out. Then Punk got eliminated and they chanted DANIEL BRYAN as he got laid out by a chokeslam. So Bryan was WAY ABOVE Punk with fans by 2014...and the reaction the next night even proved that further before anyone ever heard about Punk quitting over having to do the Kane match in Feb and do the Cripple H match at Mania.
