Man, it just hit me as I am watching old NJPW, I want Bryan on commentary when Nakamura debuts at NXT TakeOver: Dallas.

I was listening to this song and it certainly represents Daniel Bryan. I really hope one day someone makes a music video about Daniel Bryan with this song.

Dave Meltzer reported on the latest installment of Wrestling Observer Radio that Brie decided to depart from WWE before Daniel Bryan made the decision to retire from the promotion.
While it’s not confirmed when exactly she will be retiring, but it will be either after Fastlane or WrestleMania 32. It’s possible that her match with Charlotte at Fastlane will be her last match.
Not too huge of a surprise. Hopefully Alicia will be able to rebound alright.

I got the sense lat year, and I think I noted it on here, that I thought Brie seemed to be starting to check out and look less engaged. I remarked how Nikki seemed to be feeling the opposite. Nikki seemed to be extra motivated and doing the best work of her career. I speculated (and this was a year ago) that Brie may already be ready to move on and start a family. In fact, she was saying similar things on Total Divas. To me, she just seemed less passionate every time she was on TV, especially compared to Nikki. It obviously wouldn't surprise me to see Brie walk away sometime this year. Maybe she will continue to be on Total Divas and make occasional appearances.

Always got the feeling that Brie was more interested in moving on from wrestling this second run for her and Nikki. That she was really there to be with her sister and husband. Husband's retired, sister's out recovering for at least six months, why keep throwing yourself at the floor if you don't want to?

I've always enjoyed Brie. Have always found her to be solid in-ring and not nearly as bad as many claim.
Will miss "Brie Mode" but am very happy to see them moving on to the next phase of their life. Both her and Daniel Bryan seem like very nice people in real life.

I'm listening to a song that's a fitting tribute to the situation at hand. Yes Yes Yes-Adam WarRock Not sure if I can link due to it sampling Daniel Brayn's theme, but it's a fitting tribute even though it was released a while ago. As long as it's not embedded, it's fair game.

WWE should do a spin off to Total Divas called "Brie and Bryan: The Next Chapter"
I might actually watch that.

During the championship ceremony it is fun watching which guys are amused and happy that Bryan is getting a huge chant. Big Show and Miz were loving it I was there live for that show, and I remember watching all the guys in the ring and there's some you don't pick up on camera. Ziggler kept laughing his ass off, and at one point Punk turned and said something to him and he literally tipped his head back in laughter.

I wonder, of who was there that had any kind of power in the company, was standing there going, "Wow, we're f***ing morons." Not just for the fact that they tried to do this without Bryan, but for the fact that that they tried to do it in Seattle. We know Hunter isn't as oblivious as Vince, so he likely knew this was a dumb idea.

I remember that everyone just kind of shot the shit after the cameras stopped rolling, with everyone doing Spin-a-Roonies, even Stephanie.

I just watched this back and whether or not he was told to say it or not, JBL (of course) shouts "Daniel Bryan is having fun!" Then insincerely says "I love it!" and then says "This is what we do Maggle!". What? Make the fans sit through terrible things that they don't want to see? THAT'S what you do? Ok. Gotcha.

Wasn't that the championship ceremony that ended with Stephanie being fatally injured by Orton accidentially running into her? This new piece of post-show antics is.........doubly amusing.

Oh, you better believe it. I remember the post-show antics vividly because someone posted a video on Twitter or somewhere from it.

I remember reading when Cena was on the mic during the dark segment, the Wyatts bolted from underneath the ring, giving the impression they were under the ring the entire ceremony.

I honestly believe that JBL, especially earlier in his second commentary run, had like a list of lines he was allowed to say. He'd just cycle through them and apply X. X is havin' fun, Maggle! He's/She's twerkin', Maggle! We've got a flyin' X, Maggle! Plus John going onto wikipedia and reading off championships to appear informed.
