Daniel Bryan Is Back Competing In The WWE

Ok...ok...ok...I know wrestling isn't real. So please let's not start in on "oh it's fake" and "it's scripted so it's not a sport." Yes I know it's scripted to a certain degree. But with that said it's hard not to be excited about the announcement that was made earlier today about WWE Superstar Daniel Bryan.

Two years ago, Daniel Bryan was forced to retire after several neck injuries. It was a very emotional night in Seattle when he announced on live TV that he was being forced to retire due to injury. But tonight on SmackDown Live from Dallas, Bryan announced that not only have neck specialists medically cleared him to get back in the ring, but so has the WWE doctors. They have officially cleared him to compete again in the squared circle.

Whether you like wrestling or not, you have to love this story. A man who was forced to retire from doing something that he has lived his entire life to do and getting his love back. Bryan worked for two years and has finally been allowed to wrestle again.

So for you non-wrestling people...how can I put into words that you will understand? It'd be like seeing Lou Gehrig, after announcing he has a serious disease, working hard and doing treatment to beat his disease and getting back on the baseball field. It'd be like seeing Joe Theismann coming back from his nasty broken leg and making it back to being on the football field. That's what seeing Daniel Bryan getting back into the ring is like.

So to Daniel Bryan I say...Congratulations brother. Can't wait to see you in the ring again.

YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
