Sure, Bryan Danielson is absolutely great to watch in the ring with his technical prowess, his effortless awareness, and his aggressive, smash-mouth style, but hes also one tough S.O.B. At 2007s Manhattan Mayhem show, Danielson challenged Takeshi Morishima for the ROH World Championship. Hed lose the match, but it was what happened in the match that stands out as one of the most memorable moments in the career of the American Dragon. Mere minutes into the match, a shot to Bryans head resulted in a broken orbital bone and a detached retina. A detached retina! As in he couldve gone blind! Not one to disappoint the fans, Danielson toughed it out and went for a further 20+ minutes and put on a fantastic match against the much larger Morishima, who attacked the eye throughout the match (because thats sensible when a legit injury has occurred). Additionally, this whole incident also led to Bryan wearing an eyepatch for a little while, which we all know makes anybody infinitely cooler.
