    I'll be doing cartwheels if that feud happens and goes to WM.

    I won't be. I can only imagine the ring work would be bland as hell!

    He hasn't been released - his next tweet mentioned a police officer thinking his gps was a phone - the policeman released him without a ticket - he's just taking the píss!

    Regarding the concussion, I watched the full match on superstars, and I don't think the above video is where the concussion came from - early on in the match ziggler was in the corner and Ryback was clotheslining him or something then they did that old conspicuous 'cut to the crowd' shot they used to do for chair shots. I think wwe edited out the actual concussion causing blow

    A few seconds later, ziggler practically collapses while ducking a clothesline, and his eyes are all glazed over.

    I watched Superstars as well. From what I saw, if it was the clothesline at the end that caused it, it did look to me that Dolph landed on his head at an almost side angle.

    It was a strange bump that I couldn't tell whether it was Ryback's fault or Dolph's for trying to be his usual extravagant self in his selling. If it's the latter, it would fly with the reports of Doctors telling him that he has to tone down the bumps he's taking.

    American Wolves to TNA

    If true it could be the start of New Era for TNA. Out with the Old (Jarrett, Styles, Possibly Sting) , in with the New (Richards, Edwards)

    I could see some "brawling" outside the ring and a big boot or two...

    And I could see him attempting to steal Daniel Bryan's spotlight at the end, Brother!

    Feel like Bad News Barrett here:
    Daniel Bryan update



    Details are stiff forthcoming, but WWE has confirmed that Bryan Danielson suffered a concussion last night on Raw.

    Earlier today the word going around at television is that Bryan did not remember a lot of what happened in the cage match and that the concussion seemed to be serious, but all that was confirmed is the diagnosis of the concussion.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 24,955 Mod ✭✭✭✭Loughc


    No no no no no!

    I really hope it's a bad rumour. This could totally derail his momentum for WM if he's out for along time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    I didn't notice him take any bad bumps really. Anyone any ideas when it could have happened?

    Me neither and he seemed very coherent at the end!

    Cesaro and Swagger are in trouble!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,489 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I know it's a long shot, but we're not talking a kayfabe concussion here, where he'll say "I can't remember what happened" and go back to the Wyatts, no? :(

    Yep I can imagine The Real Americans and Zeb coming out cutting a promo and then hearing I am A Real American blare out, that should cause a pop or two! ;)

    Hmmmm good idea and nice swerve! After the reaction Monday night they can't hold Bryan down much longer IMO

    Absolutely.

    I reckon with Cena's new red/yellow cacks, it's a good indication of who's corner he'll be in.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 787 ✭✭✭Deadlie


    I can't find any legit source for the concussion rumour. Everyones claiming the "WWE have confirmed" or "a spokesperson said", but when you follow it back it's some ****ty blog.

    One even went as far as saying he had a concussion, wrested on the SD taping anyway and was rushed to hospital.

    Both Wrestling Observer and PWInsider have confirmed it via a WWE spokesman. For whatever reason they didn't announce it on WWE.com.

    Not like WWE not to confirm it on wwe.com tho. Fingers crossed it's a misunderstanding or a fake story leaked!

    This is the PW Torch quote




    WWE NEWS: Report - Daniel Bryan suffered concussion on Raw



    WWE star Daniel Bryan suffered a concussion during the Raw TV main event on Monday night, reports SEScoops.com.

    A WWE spokesman confirmed Bryan's injury, which reportedly took place early in the steel cage main event. Bryan continued on with the match, then took part in the show-closing angle dropping his affiliation with the Wyatts and returning to form as babyface Daniel Bryan.

    *** The following contains Smackdown SPOILER information ***

    ***

    Daniel Bryan was held off Tuesday night's Smackdown TV taping following the concussion. WWE followed up on the show-closing Raw angle by having Bray Wyatt address feeling "betrayed" by Bryan.

    Would be very surprised if WWE started using fake concussions as storylines with all the recent uproar about the long-term effects.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,753 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    If true its not a storyline, Sure there was no bump I can remember Bryan taking and I cant imagine them doing such an angle without a big bump to play off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    The back suplex off the top maybe? Can't imagine it being much else.

    Either way if he is concussed it's probably the worst timing ever :(

    That is the most cited cause.

    Bryan has been very foolish with his head over the years. He often would be concussed in ROH and he was right along side with Nigel McGuinness in delivering full force headbutts. McGuinness has SERIOUS memory issues now.

    In WWE Daniel Bryan takes a lot of abuse to the the front and back of the head. For example he still does the diving top rope headbutt - a move with quite the legacy given the Benoit situation. Harley Race used to do the diving headbutt and warned Benoit in the strongest possible terms about it as it really messed Harley up. Wade Keller is putting up old audios from 2003 and in a lot of them he is asking aloud that Benoit stop doing them.

    Number 30 in the rumble and do nothing but toss the last guy out then bubble wrap until mania.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 621 ✭✭✭rude awakening


    This whole Ryback tweeting business is getting fair annoying

    Yeah they could do that.

    Think their best bet is have him win the chamber match now though. And then a triple threat at WM.
