Daniel Bryan says he's considered leaving WWE to wrestle again
Daniel Bryan delivered one of the most heartbreaking speeches in WWE history back in February when he announced after a long medical absence that his repeated head injuries had forced him into early retirement.
Bryan revealed that he had suffered from multiple post-concussion seizures and had a lesion on his brain. He still has a huge presence in WWE as the general manager of SmackDown Live, and just a few weeks ago WWE started using Bryan's medical condition as the basis for a compelling feud with The Miz, who called out Bryan for being a "coward" and dared him to go wrestle on the indies if he truly loves wrestling.
In an interview with the Associated Press, Bryan conceded that it's too risky for WWE to let him compete again given his condition, but that if not for his family, he'd likely find a way to get back in the ring.

In August, Bryan told Fox Sports that the most dificult aspect of his new role as general manager is "being around wrestling and not being able to actually wrestle."
