Daniel Bryan still doesn't know what the future holds for him. There are reports that WWE officials have advised the wrestler that they don't think he will perform inside the ring again, which obviously doesn't sit well with Bryan. Doctors seem to be spouting the same message, leading many fans to wonder what the man would do if he couldn't wrestle.

It seems becoming an Ecologist or Environmentalist appeals to the real-life Bryan Danielson. Studying nature and man's relationship with it is something the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion notes interests him in his recently-released book. If there wasn't a future in WWE for him as an active in-ring performer, would he leave the industry altogether?

There's a good chance Bryan could fill a backstage role in the company, but the big question is whether or not he would want to. Having a bank of interests outside of pro wrestling has always been advised by many top names, and it seems Daniel Bryan has that. This would be one hell of a career change, but there's definite interest there from the man himself.
