Daniel Bryan appeared on ESPN’s SportsCenter tonight (February 9th, 2016) to talk to Jonathan Coachman about WWE.
There was a highlight reel of the top five moments of Monday’s episode of RAW. Bryan appeared on SportsCenter via satellite and talked about his retirement from pro wrestling. He said that the retirement speech on RAW was hard for him. He said that he had 10 concussions that were documented in his career and that it’s impossible to actual figure out how many concussions that he has had for various reasons. He said that he had undergone several EGE tests and he revealed that some of the concussions made him have seizures. He said that worst thing you can do is to work while having a concussion.
Bryan noted that he started the YES! chants to be annoying to the fans and did not start doing it to have the fans like him because he was a heel. Bryan said that having the entire roster come out and celebrate with him on RAW was surreal and touching and he didn’t know how he got to top spot in WWE and he didn’t know how he got so popular with the fans. He said that he was very fortunate to be in pro wrestling.
He said that hijacking RAW from 2013 was his favorite moment in his career. He said that he would like to help people in his next career. He said that he doesn’t need anyone to remember him, but he hopes that the fans have moments that they never forget from attending a WWE event.
Daniel Bryan thanked ESPN for having him on the show and this wrapped up the segment.
