You know, this may be a way to get out of his contract. Don't know how WWE contracts deal with retirement.
Or maybe it's a work.
Or he's retiring from the injured reserve.

This could be a hopeful swerve. He goes to retire and someone attacks him, setting up one more match.

Have him blame it on HHH. Say he wanted to wrestle but Trips wouldn't allow it. One last attempt to use him to get Reigns over.

If he was actually retiring I don't think he'd do it this way with that tweet
I think it's a set up for something

I get using anything to kayfabe to get Reigns over. But with the concussion lawsuits and the medical protocol confusing reality and wrestling is a bad idea.

If it is his retirement, it'd be awesome if his announcement was that WWE is allowing him a final match, to go out on his own terms. Bryan vs. Nakamura at WrestleMania, the match he's wanted for ages. They can finally make it happen.

If this is truly the end, at least he was able to have a truly memorable WM moment. Thank you, Daniel Bryan, thank you.

f***ing f*** I hop this is a work.
Bryan Danielson was one of the reason that I remained a wrestling fan in the mid-2000's.

So... could it be a work? It would be incredibly crass if it was. Crass seems a bit dramatic a word isn't it? False retirements are practically a pro wrestling staple at this point. Bryan's threatened retirement has been haunting wrestling fans for quite some time now, if you can jerk us around a little before getting him back in the fold you might as well make use of the circumstances. I don't see any issue making an angle out of this if it is one. I hope it's a work because I don't wanna believe Bryan's time is up.

It's a swerve. I'm hoping until the last damn moment.
