From @sofdlovesbsb: Do you feel Daniel Bryan will need to change his style of wrestling when he returns whenever he returns?
Yes he does. Bryan's been out for five months due to a major neck injury and if he doesn't change his style he would be foolish. There are several moves that Bryan did regularly that he should probably cut out. Those moves are the dive he does between top/middle ropes, the missile dropkick that sees him landing on the back of his head and the obvious one is the diving headbutt off the top rope. Bryan's a smart enough guy that he will know what he should or shouldn't be doing. He's been wrestling for 12 years and if he wants to wrestle for another 5-7 years then he has to be smart about it or else he's going to be done a lot sooner than that. Maybe he can do some of those big moves in PPV matches or major TV matches that would garner a lot of attention, but he can take them out of his routine at live events. He's such a talented guy that he can make other moves work. The best thing Bryan has going for him is the crowd is fully behind him. They will cheer him no matter what he does. When he returns he'll be the most sympathetic babyface that there is, so that's going to help him regain the momentum and hopefully he won't miss a beat whenever he gets back in the ring.
