Brock admitted on sportscenter that he has so many concussions in his career that he's lost count, are WWE rushing him to get tested and cleared? :sas2:

Big difference is Daniel Bryan is a descendent of one of the munchkins from Wizard of Oz and because of that is much more fragile physically than most average sized Americans.

I wonder if people are this worried about other wrestlers. I mean, you gotta be naive as fukk to think Daniel Bryan is the only one with these kind of issues. It's very likely the majority of our favorites SHOULDN'T be wrestling right now.

This damn business is 4/5ths filled with dudes who have had multiple concussions (documented or otherwise) You wouldn't even watch this shyt if you wanted to be strict about the well being of yr fellow man. Dreamer could've been killed in that very ring (and I damn sure wish he had been), no one gave a fukk. Morals and concern and telling a grown ass man what to do has no place in our great sport.

Let me go and watch Shibata and Ishii headbutt each other. Or should I start a petition to save them from themselves :lupe:

Yup. It's funny reading people trying to act like they are actually worried about wrestlers. If they were they wouldn't be watching after all these years. I have no issue admitting I'm a fukking a$$hole when it's comes to my entertainment from wrestling :manny:


edit: :dead: :dead: :dead: at the Dreamer part.

Wrestle Sheamus, brehs

What’s notable is that the company very clearly did not want him saying it was a concussion and had specifically stated that it wasn’t a concussion, making people think it was a neck injury that had put him on the shelf. It wasn’t until months later when he did an interview while touring public relations work overseas where he said it was a concussion and gave the location as Dublin.

Bryan had been banged up several days earlier, two nights after last year’s WrestleMania, in a singles match with Sheamus. We had heard about it that night, just hours after the show.

This is a very key point because clearly there was an issue because the actual concussion spot in the main event of the Smackdown show was edited off television. The only people who saw it were the fans in the arena, and a handful of others who did see it.

According to one person who actually saw the incident and has full knowledge of the subject, Danielson was draped on the second rope facing the outside of the ring. The spot looked like nothing. Sheamus was in the corner, on the apron, and kicked Bryan hard in the temple. The description was, “Time stood still. It was clear something was just not right. The legal man, Wade Barrett, went over to pick Bryan up, but Bryan was hurt. Everyone knew something was wrong. But, the thoroughbred horse continued the match and took bumps. Obviously Bryan said he was fine. Anyone who noticed what happened knew he was far from fine. Maybe it was because of Bryan’s reaction to HHH stopping his earlier match with Randy Orton on Raw, but nothing was done

So Sheamus pulled a Goldberg and ended DB's career :jbhmm: I found it cringeworthy that Vince told him to say what he wants but emphasized that he do the "YES" at the end of his speech.
