A firefighter risks his life everytime he runs into a burning building but we wouldn't let one run do it with say a broken arm.
DB isn't a good coach and DB isn't the guy you want teaching someone WWE stlye.

There's like no upside to bringing Bryan back in a wrestling capacity if you're WWE. If Bryan wants to do it, risks be damned, I mean, I guess its his decision, but that doesn't mean WWE has any obligation whatsoever, nor should they, let him do it under their auspices.
The problem they're going to run into is that he might force their hand. I think they were hoping he'd just fade away, but they also really don't want him wrestling somewhere else, either.

It was an idiotic worked shoot.
edit: Having discussed everything. I still think ONE match with Miz would be ok. He doesn't have to do anything crazy.
It's an uncomfortable fact that my preferred type of wrestling as of right now involves dudes dropping each other on their heads and hitting each other with intent to truly hurt.
The human condition and all that.
That's what would make it fun to watch .
Miz is basically the only guy I could see Bryan working a match with safely. Miz's offense wouldn't put Bryan in danger at all so long as Bryan doesn't start doing tons of stupid shit.
No suicide dives because Miz, will not be fucking catching you.

Meltzer says that he knows that Bryan already worked out an entirely different style that he plans to work that he considers "safer."
He also mentioned that its way more iffy than when Steve Austin came back from his broken neck where most doctors told him there was no way he should set foot in a ring against and just kept getting random opinions until he found a guy that said he could go, whereas Bryan didn't have to look very hard to get cleared by a few doctors.

That's a life or death example, which has a different threshold. A wrestler isn't directly saving a person's life by getting dropped on his head on a suplex. And if we want to take the position that we should stop wrestlers from performing if they're seriously hurt, then we need to draw lines. Is a guy having one document concussion okay? How about three? How about a history of blowing out his tendons? Or a guy who has a painkiller addiction? Or a guy who abuses steroids?
It's easier to accept that we're taking joy from people injuring themselves knowingly for our entertainment and figure out if that's something with which you're okay.
Today lessons we gonna teach yaw how to do a dragon sleeper suplex.

My favorite move right now is Miyahara kneeing the fuck out of a guy's jaw or the back of his head. I know this is probably not good for his opponent's neurological health. I accept that stain.
I generally try not to be patronizing about safety and quality of life to people who do insanely dangerous things for a living. There's no absence of information about all the associated risks so if the guy is willing to do this in spite of his health and concern from his family, then that's what he's going to do.

CMLL lol. I mean, it's certainly a safer space than NJPW. But yeah, don't do it, like at all, Daniel.

If Bryan goes to Japan I could easily see him working a technical wizard style, think Fujinami, Nishimura, Mutoh, etc - he doesn't have to be trading shoot headbutts with Shibata to get over.

Bryan's interest in going to Japan seems like a thing I'd be more interested in hearing his opinion on when his contract expires and he has a 8 month old baby.
I mean, obviously it depends how much Bryan wants to work.

One show's already too much.
I mean, how much did the roids factored in as well. Bryan's free from that.
DO I SMELL A GWF HOUSE SHOW?
I might monkey around with some new OBS streaming stuff tonight and do a house show as an excuse lol

I think Bryan will be fine the first match. The 2nd and 3rd is where you have to worry.
Yep, I bet his first match he'll wrestle with the safer style that he said he's been working on. Then get really cocky because he didn't injury himself and start to be more and more reckless again.

Really enjoying this Honor Rising day 2 main event, even tho it just feels like a House Show.
Finally ready to watch me some Shibata vs Sabre JR and get hyped for the Cup.

After your performance in GWF I, it's probably because the higher ups are going to ask you to start using it in case it is confirmed you are not already.

Wrestlemania 33 gives me this odd feeling everyone is gonna have some big extravagant entrance.
Hey Seph, is it too late for me to join the GWF?
at the moment entry is closed. it's already going to be hard to make sure everyone on the roster doesn't go extended amounts of time without screen time
