10 Reasons Why Daniel Bryan's Wrestling Style Cost Him His Career

10. Headbutts

Believe it or not, banging your head against things will cause concussions. When Daniel Bryan flew off the top rope towards a stricken opponent with his head completely exposed, that's the part of his anatomy that took the brunt of any contact. You may think that Bryan missed his adversary on landing, but WWE aired replays many times showing the four-time World Champion legitimately making contact skull-first. It didn't make for pleasant viewing at times. Did anybody else find themselves cringing when Daniel and Dolph Ziggler were on top of that ladder at WrestleMania 31? Harley Race has famously gone on record with his regret at popularising the diving headbutt, and Daniel's situation will only add to that. Ol' Goat Face is another Superstar to have suffered - along with the likes of Chris Benoit and Dynamite Kid - at the hands of the move.
