20 WWE Superstars And Their 80s Counterparts

It’s a painful comparison to make, but right now it’s hard not to look at the career of Magnum T.A. when thinking about Daniel Bryan’s current predicament.

Now Bryan isn’t retired just yet, and here’s hoping that the former American Dragon has many, many more years of in-ring activity ahead of him, but right now he’s being hampered by injury issues that are throwing up major questions about his future.

With apparent shoulder and neck issues now dealt with, the big problem for D-Bry is believed to be concussions. For poor Terry Allen, a car accident caused severe neck problems, initially part-paralysis and the instant end of his wrestling career.

In the case of Magnum T.A., the NWA lost a huge babyface on the cusp of becoming ‘the man’ and who was set to lead the company forward as the World Champion. With Daniel Bryan, the WWE currently has their most popular, and arguably most talented, performer sat on the sidelines with an unsure future and huge questions surrounding his health and in-ring career.
