It seemed inevitable to me, but this still f***ing sucks.

What a shame. At the least we got WrestleMania 30.

I'm bummed that he's done, but I'm grateful for what he did over the years. I'm nearing 30 and the "YES Movement" storyline was the only time in the last 5-10 years I've ever been truly immersed in a story and allowed to enjoy it for what it was.

So... could it be a work? He could swerve saying the doctors advisement meaning he's actually cleared, but I doubt it.

Well, today officially sucks. Since I first saw him in 2006, Daniel Bryan has held a special place in my heart. Truly one of the best I've ever seen in the ring.

So... could it be a work? It would be incredibly crass if it was. Mark Henry pulled it off.

I've kind of been wanting him to do this for a couple of years now. Love the guy, and I've loved his work for over 10 years now, but he was heading down a dangerous road if he kept pushing it. I'll actually record Raw now to see what he has to say.

I fell in love with this man's work in 2006 and it sucks that it has to end like this. I'm glad he made it to the top.

It doesn't suck. It's great news. It's great news that Bryan Danielson can live the rest of his life with his wife and dogs and future kids children in good health, not in a wheelchair and not (hopefully) with advanced CTE. As a fan would I like to see him more in the ring? Of course but as a human being I'm glad he's doing this. Of course. I guess I meant the whole saga sucks, the injuries, the uncertainty, and having to go out and make another retirement announcement. This will probably be a tough night for him. But he does have his health, which above all is best.

Is Daniel Bryan retiring or is Bryan Danielson retiring?

I was too young to ever be able to see guys like Stone Cold or The Rock wrestle in their prime decade. I just barely got to witness how damn good Eddie Guerrero was before he passed away. But I was around to see Bryan Danielson stake his claim as the best wrestler on the planet to never sign with WWE, and I was around to see Daniel Bryan raise the World Heavyweight Championship above his at WrestleMania. Nothing can take that away from me, and thank god I was able to witness every moment of it.
Thank you, Bryan.

I'm really happy he can end his career without any further injury or damage to himself. But as a wrestling fan...

He was my favorite. They wasted a true top level talent and Vince McMahon should be retired right along with him for it.
