I'm not too worried, remember when AJ smashed the back of her head into that turnbuckle post? I'm not sure she even took a RAW off.

If worse does come to worse, they can have him "sit out" the week, and have him ready to go for the Rumble.

If they're freaking out about their Wrestlemania plans possibly being f***ed if Bryan can't compete in the Rumble, I can certainly see why they'd hold off announcing anything about this yet, at least until they're confident whether or not he'll be able to wrestle in two weeks. True. If it's minor, they could easily just keep him out of matches until the Rumble and keep the concussion thing quiet (say that the Wyatts attacked him backstage or something). If it's major and he's out of the Rumble, then they'll probably announce it at some point when they've got their plans sorted.

Where did this 'WWE.com report EVERY CONCUSSION' thing come from? Honestly...since at least last week when they reported the Concussion of Dolph Ziggler who honestly is NOT a centerpiece of a storyline, in a match on one of their C-shows. Literally a report that COULD have waited until after the show aired, and instead was reported the day the show was taped. You also got NAMES, specific details of the incident, the after-care, and the like. A detailed description and the link to the corporate site detailing the ImPACT test he'd be subjected to and THAT was reported. They have an update to a Kayfabe injury on the front page and a history of reporting legit ones as well. If he's not on SD, or Raw and gets some sort of update...i'll believe it. Otherwise it's unconfirmed NEWZ.

If Daniel Bryan is really is concussed, then that really really sucks.

He should've lied about his concussion and just read the results of the match on the internet to fill in the blanks. Now it's gonna be Daniel Bryan vs Dolph Ziggler in the Wrestlemania pre-show in a First Concussion match.

If they pinpoint that it was someone else's fault because of CARELESSESS, that person is now jobbing to Zack Ryder in house show openers for the remainder of their contract.
We'll be seeing Jimmy Uso come out alone for the next year or something with no explanation =P

The Usos break up, Jimmy gets a solid upper-midcard singles push while Jey vanishes onto Superstars. (In fact, it was Jimmy who caused the concussion, but no one could tell the difference.)

Alright, this is the most credible source yet. This is very unfortunate.

I mean this is always a scary thing and the most important thing is Bryan's health so I wish him the best of luck.
Best case scenario is he comes back at the rumble which will be a 12 day recovery, which while not ideal, there's a chance he can get cleared by then.
One of the worst case is he isn't clear until after EC which basically ends any shot of him winning the title unless the WWE writes a convoluted angle to make the title match a triple threat match.

I doubt Vince and creative has any plans for him to be near the title picture during the next 3 months anyway, so even if this is long-term, it won't hurt him too much if they can write the Wyatt storyline (which will continue for quite some time) around it.
With the "special attractions" and part-timers back for Mania, he was going to be in the midcard through April anyway despite the hopes and dreams of the IWC.

He hasn't been putting his arms in front of him during the Flying Goat as much, it's come off more like a Benoit swan dive headbutt lately. It's a risky move that should only be used sparsely anyway, but if he wants to be dumb and keep using it then he should execute it more safely.

the missile dropkick would be a better set up for the running knee anyway. His opponent gets flattened and rolls away to struggle to his feet while Bryan kips up and gets ready to charge
what's the quickest anyone has ever come back from a concussion anyway?

Yucko.
No more headbutts. But more importantly, they better not rush him back. That would be absolutely terrible.

i hate this concussion Era The old school thing is for Bryan to show everyone what a manly man he is by toughing it out and ending up with permanent neurological damage that ends his career by 2015.
