It’s being reported that WWE star and current Intercontinental Champion Daniel Bryan is considering retirement do to ongoing lingering neck issues that have kept him out of action for most of last year and for the last few weeks. WWE has currently removed Bryan from all shows through June.

There appears to be growing concern that Daniel will never fully heal from his neck problem by top WWE officials and they are urging Bryan to retire rather than risk further injury.

Sports Kings is not a legitimate source imo

Although I recently predicted he'd leave within 18 months of Brie leaving and I thought Brie would leave in the next 18 months... so... I don't know.

If this is true I hope he makes the choice that is right for him. It would be unfortunate to see him leave, but he's gotta put his health before the business.

Geez'. And I thought he was gonna be the future of the WWE....
