10 Best Things The Internet Has Done With WWE Raw (Feb 8)

All the highs, lows, and general reaction to Daniel Bryan's stunning announcement.

By Jack G King /

It should be no surprise that one story dominates this week's best internet responses to Raw - Daniel Bryan's retirement. The former WWE Champion hasn't taken part in any in-ring action since April 14th 2015, and finally confirmed all our fears on this week's show, announcing his retirement in an incredibly emotional last segment. We've got all the fallout from the shocking news - including tweets from fans and fellow wrestlers alike, and one particularly crude Photoshop. If you're not a Daniel Bryan fan (although, in fairness, who isn't?), rest assured. We also have the best moments involving wrestlers from elsewhere on the card, including AJ Styles, The Dudley Boyz, Sasha Banks, and Kevin Owens.

10. Rob Van Dam Has No Concept Of Age

https://twitter.com/TherealRVD/status/696917299710656512 Rob Van Dam is no stranger to...extracurricular activities, but even this doesn't quite explain the tweet he posted after Raw went off air. The former superstar claimed that he grew up watching Daniel Bryan wrestle, despite being eleven years older than him. In fairness to Mr. Van Dam, he could be making a far deeper sentiment than first meets the eye. Perhaps the ECW icon meant that he "grew up" in an emotional sense, and that Bryan helped him appreciate pro wrestling on a more mature level. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.
