Daniel Bryan wants to come back and a neurologist who specializes in concussions says he’s ready to go. WWE neurologists aren’t so sure so they will be sending Daniel Bryan to a third neurologist to get tested.
Via IGN,
“I had a concussion in April, and obviously they’re very hyper-sensitive about concussion stuff right now. One neurologist who specializes in concussions – who was the neurologist for the Super Bowl last year – cleared me with no limitations. All my testing came back excellent. But the WWE’s medical doctor is skeptical, because of my history of concussions and that sort of thing. So they will not clear me. So now, we have two doctors: one saying no, one saying yes. They’re going to send me to a third doctor at some point in the near future and that doctor will decide my fate.” – Daniel Bryan
Now, it may sound like Daniel Bryan is unhappy with the WWE doctor but he goes on to offer him some praise while speculating on what happens if the third doctor says no.
“The WWE doctor Joe Maroon [is] amazing and highly respected in the concussion field, and if they send me to a third neurologist who’s also highly respected in the concussion field and they say literally no…well, then is it really smart to go against two doctors? I get all fired up…and then I’m like, maybe that’s not the best thing for me and my family going forward.” – Daniel Bryan
I want to see Daniel Bryan wrestling again but I don’t want to see him do the things he was doing before. If Bryan gets cleared and the WWE allows him another go, he needs to play it safe. Bryan will not get another chance if he gets hurt again. Let’s hope whatever the case, that Bryan can find a place on WWE TV one way or another.
