- Report on tug of war between WWE & D-Bry
|
Over recent months, there has been a lot of speculation about Daniel Bryan’s WWE future. It has been said that WWE officials have been reevaluating his health for a potential in-ring return before WrestleMania 34 or SummerSlam later this year. In fact, Bryan himself has admitted that if he’s not cleared by the grandest stage of them all, it won’t happen at all and he will have to wait until his contract expires with the company.
It’s been rumored that Daniel Bryan could change his mind about re-signing with WWE. Apparently, WWE officials are doing everything in their power to keep him with the company, including offering him a major contract. It has been reported that Daniel Bryan was offered a big money deal to stay, but he turned it down because the contract wouldn’t allow him to wrestle. As a result, most WWE officials are furious with Bryan. Since he’s made it crystal clear that wrestling again is more important than money, Daniel Bryan’s future in the industry won’t be with WWE. Unfortunately, his current deal with the company won’t expire until later this year. That means he’s at the mercy of WWE officials’ booking and the rumor is they will be turning him heel sooner rather than later to hurt Bryan’s popularity before he leaves to wrestle for another promotion. On paper, a heel turn for Daniel Bryan could work. It would be a challenge to get the WWE Universe to boo him, but Bryan has been developing a rivalry with Shane McMahon on SmackDown Live for weeks. There’s a lot of potential for their feud to lead to a match at WrestleMania 34. However, Bryan’s health and tension with WWE officials could keep him out of the ring, which raises questions about the payoff of his heel turn. If the intention of the turn is simply to hurt Daniel Bryan’s popularity, then WWE officials most likely have given up trying to re-sign him. A move like that would drive most wrestlers away, but Bryan had the choice to sign a huge deal with WWE and stay or to take his chances wrestling again. Daniel Bryan’s future will be inside a wrestling ring no matter what happens between now and September. The WWE Universe just has to wait a few more months to see what the future holds for one of the most popular wrestlers in history. https://www.inquisitr.com/4727534/wwe-officials-furious-with-daniel-bryan-after-he-turned-down-major-contract-extension/ Another report covering same rumor. http://popculture.com/wwe/2018/01/10/daniel-bryan-turns-down-wwe-contract-heel-turn/ People already saying he's gonna be at Cody's All-In show. Meltzer supposed to cover these rumors in his next issue i believe. D-Bry obviously doesn't live a lavish lifestyle so I'm guessing he's good on the money tip but I'd still probably take the cheese after recently having a kid n what not.

What a dumbass. We all know WWE isn't perfect, but they gave Daniel Bryan a very good retirement segment on Raw, something that most wrestlers will never get. Then they put him in a major no wrestling role with good money, which again something most WWE wrestlers will never get.
Then he's given a major contract just to stay and possibly have a job for life with whatever good health he has, and he turns it down because he really wants to wrestle? I think Daniel has clearly lost it. Is wrestling really that much more important than keeping your body healthy? Look at the Old Man. Look at Nash, who can't even think without tearing a quad. Look at Edge. Stone Cold. Then look at the numerous untimely deaths of former wrestlers. Just saying.

" It has been reported that Daniel Bryan was offered a big money deal to stay, but he turned it down because the contract wouldn’t allow him to wrestle. As a result, most WWE officials are furious with Bryan."
This part legitimately made me laugh. All I could imagine was something like this playing out. "What do you mean he turned down the offer, did you put an extra zero on the end?" "I..I put t..two sir!" "And he STILL refused? Why?" "He s..said something about w..wanting to wrestle.." "WRESTLE!? What does THAT have to do with the WWE!?"

But DBry now have Brie and his child to think about, so taking "easy tv appearance money" seems to make sense. Regardless, I can respect the man decision if wrestling is his passion. I simply don't think it is the best if we consider the new family he has right now.

How is turning him heel going to hurt him outside of WWE? Who writes this shit? WWE could bury the hell out of him on television and he'd still be just as much of a superstar in the indies or NJPW. so you don't think him coming off his big mania win would generate a more profitable run outside of wwe than coming off a bland heel general manager of the b show run? cooling off a wrestler before they leave the company has been happening for a long time |

Also he'd end up getting paid a King's ransom on the indy scene no problem. |

WWE should let him wrestle if he agrees to sign a waiver not holding them accountable for the risks he puts on himself. That way he can wrestle and WWE would gain money from his increased merchandise sales It's not about the WWE not being legally accountable, even if he signed a waiver and something happened the WWE's public image would still take a significant hit and it'd also have other repercussions. |

I can see why the WWE won't let him wrestle because it will be a PR nightmare if something happens. |

As it easy as it sometimes is to blame the company for bad decisions, and as much I like and respect him, Bryan is a fool if this really is the situation. So what if they don’t want/allow him to wrestle again? He has a wife and kid to be thinking about now, and his long term health should take priority over his selfish desire to get back in the ring. All things considered, he had a great in ring career, accomplished more in a shorter amount of time than most ever will in this company, and to top it all off he got to retire on his own terms in front of a hometown crowd. You really can’t ask for much more than that.
And now WWE is allegedly offering him the same type of money he would be making if he was still wrestling, and all he has to do is continue being an on screen character without putting his body on the line? Bryan has nothing left to prove to anyone, and if I was him I’d definitely be thinking about supporting my family over whatever wrestling pride I still wanted to hold on to. Honestly no matter how you try to spin it, WWE is definitely not in the wrong in this situation, assuming all of this is even true. |

Why do you marks always work yourselves into a shoot here lol? They could put him in the shittiest angle ever to bury him for 2 months straight, and if he popped up in any other fed or indy the crowds would all shit themselves senseless. Also lmao @ this terrible dirtsheet reporting. Officials being "furious" and them going with the "omg dey tryin ta bury him mehn" narrative... Jesus fucking christ this is just pure trash. It's unreal but losers everywhere will eat it up anyway.

I can understand the WWE not letting him back in the ring because of the "what if" situation. Daniel Bryan won't ever have to worry about money, he'll make a fortune on the independent scene because of the name he built for himself. |

What does everybody need? Back of the neck!! What does everybody love? Back of the neck!!! Heh, sorry. I know what you meant, but I had to say it. |

In this day in age people don't do there research and just believe the headline 100% so if the topic title read " wwe responsible for wrestle Daniel Bryan being paralyzed" wwe would get a lot of backlash and none of those people would bother to see if it's actually true or not so I get why wwe is hesitant

I always kind of have to roll my eyes at the people around here who act like they're a professional medic that has full details on Bryan's medical information and his previous health problems, and that assume Bryan is made of glass and will explode into a pile of dust from taking even a small bump. Bryan is clearly doing research and has been seeking medical counsel for a while now. Given what he's discovered, and given that he probably feels good, he seems confident he can wrestle again. It's only WWE's one doctor that won't clear him.
And don't get me wrong, I don't personally believe in any of the conspiracy theories that WWE is purposely holding Bryan back to get Roman more over, or whatever. I do think, though, that WWE is simply too afraid of the risk of taking any flak if Bryan DOES get hurt, and that's why they won't clear him. Which is understandable. Realistically, outside of WWE, Bryan can have a much lighter wrestling schedule, while still making good money and getting to do what he wants to do. It's not like he'll be working a "WWE-esque" schedule, where he's wrestling 5-6 days a week, every single week. With the information he has now, he seems confident he can wrestle. Could something bad happen? Sure. But there's a risk anyone could suffer a career ending injury. Roman could take a bad bump and break his neck at a house show, and his career could end like that. Obviously, Bryan's history increases the risk a bit, but as long as he's careful and safe, he'll probably be fine.

Several of them are claiming he's fine. At this point, it seems like the only one holding him back is someone who hid his affiliation with the NFL while publishing a report about how CTE and it's dangers were exaggerated.

Bryan loves wrestling. He always has. It’s all that matters to him. This. Money isn't a factor at all. It's his passion. Like I said before I wouldn't do something I was miserable doing even if I was making a load of money. My happiness is worth more than money.

WWE is facing lawsuits related to concussions. They are mega risk averse, and should be. They don't want a controversy about putting a guy in the ring with concussion history in the middle of all that shit. Bryan and his doctors know more about his health than I do. I trust that he's not being irresponsible. Now, if he takes an unprotected head shot to the ring, I'll criticize him, but until then I can't possibly sit here and throw around my opinion like it's more credible than his.

It doesn't matter if they do get fans to boo him. Being a heel that gets booed isn't going to devalue his starpower, especially with how good a crowd worker he is.
It wouldn't surprise me if it had the opposite effect and when he shows up in another promotion it'll only increase fan interest.Are you not....entertained!?Why not a contract that lets him get "loaned out" to other feds but they have to pay WWE a share of profits or a flat up front fee, along w/ whatever they pay DB?
Then he's not even wrestling in a WWE ring, they're making money, and Bryan's happy?
I mean, I'd prefer he not wrestle, it just seems like WWE's not trying all the options.
"That'll boost their competition if he wrestles for them!"
Yeah, and he's apparently going to do that regardless, so it doesn't matter.

And w/ Bryan particularly...his Shawn Michaels "face w/ heart" gimmick was easily my least favorite version of him in WWE.
