It is no secret that Daniel Bryan wants to return to the ring. Ever since he retired from WWE, he has been outspoken about his desire to return to the squared circle. Bryan was recently interviewed by The Trentonian in order to promote the upcoming episode of Smackdown Live at the Prudential Center.
During the interview, he gave an update on him potentially returning to the ring.
Bryan says that WWE would love to have him back but it is a tricky situation based on the current culture surrounding concussions. He also says that he is currently trying to get cleared:
“I’m trying to get cleared as we speak. All my tests have come back fantastic, better than people who have never had any concussion-type stuff. But it’s a weird thing. We’re in a weird situation politically with the climate around concussions; right now, it’s very difficult. WWE would love to have me back, but is that the smart thing for me as a business to bring me back? If I was to come back, and they let me back, would they get a lot of flak for it? They have a ton of stockholders that they’re responsible for. It’s more than just, ‘Is he healthy to do it?’
Bryan continued:
“There’s more than that to the whole situation. All the concussion doctors think that I’m healthy enough to do it, and that I should be able to do it — well, I don’t want to say all of them, I’m sure there’s somebody out there who doesn’t think that — but there’s a lot more than goes into it than just that. That’s the unfortunate situation with giant corporations and big business in the United States.”
Bryan’s contract ends in 2018 with WWE so it will be interesting to see what happens.
