Daniel Bryan Talks WWE Retirement Plan, Relinquishing Titles

Daniel Bryan has had the most successful years of his life come as of late. There are the multiple championship wins and even the success of Total Divas. Of course, these are also the most frustrating years of his life as well. He's had to relinquish those title reigns, his TV time has been relegated to a show about the women of WWE, and the most tragic of all this news is that Bryan has been dealing with the death of his father. Right now though there may be a shining in the life of Daniel Bryan.

The former Wrestlemania main eventer told the United Arab Emirates' Sport 360 that he feels ready for a return. There is only one problem for him right now though.

"I feel like I'm ready to wrestle. If they called me to wrestle tomorrow I would. It's just a matter of getting cleared. I've had a long history of concussions, so they are a bit hesitant to get me back.," Bryan told Sport 360.

"I've learned a lot about concussions during this process. I met with one of the top neurologists that specialize in concussions in the United States. They can check me after every match, but to make sure I reach a baseline level to what my mental capacities are."

When asked about relinquishing both the WWE Championship and Intercontinental Championship, he said that while it was "frustrating" there was one aspect not being to wrestle that really hurts.

"It's was very frustrating, but more the health aspect of it is: the title part isn't the big deal. The big deal is how wrestling is the way I express myself creatively, not being able to do it has made me frustrated. I've tried to transition this into gardening but it's not the same. I'm working on it though!"
