10 Most Popular Questions Fans Are Asking WWE Right Now

4. What Role Will Daniel Bryan Play In WWE?

Question: In an earlier entry, the question of whether or not Sting would ever wrestle again was posed. Steve Borden is 56 years old, which makes it sad to think that a man more than 20 years his junior may have been forced from the ring too. Daniel Bryan is 34 years old, but there have been fears that he won't work another match under the WWE umbrella. A combination of serious neck injuries holds the key to Bryan's issues. He also has concussion problems, something WWE have been keen to treat with importance in 2016. There have been different reports linking the former World Champion to a return, albeit in a non-wrestling role. Just what part will Daniel Bryan play in WWE going forward? Answer: Some of these aforementioned reports suggested Bryan would be an excellent trainer at the WWE Performance Center. Others have said he might work well as a road agent, helping young wrestlers put together their matches. All of them came before the man himself announced via Twitter that he was stepping away from the ring for good, retiring immediately. Doctors had cleared him to return to the ring, but it was WWE themselves who were holding up his in-ring future. The company were hesitant to allow Bryan to wrestle, knowing that he would find it difficult not to work an extremely physical style again. Now, they need not worry about it any longer, because Bryan has decided that retirement is the option to take. The wrestling world will mourn the absence of an incredible talent.
