Veteran WWE employee Jim Ross discussed Bryan Danielson’s release on his blog Saturday, noting his surprise at the apparently legitimate story.
“I was surprised to get up Saturday morning and to read that Daniel Bryan or Bryan Danielson had been released from WWE,” wrote Ross. “I am not sure of the exact circumstances and until that information is confirmed it’s hard to make any definitive comments. Bryan is a talented wrestler who is not going to have any trouble finding work. His in ring style is unique, the young man has certainly paid his ‘dues,’ what ever that means now days, and he’s arguably the most talked about performer on NXT.”
Aware that Danielson’s stock has definitely risen given his mainstream WWE exposure and his laying out of WWE Champion John Cena on this week’s RAW, Ross explained that the wrestler should not have any trouble making a continued pro wrestling impact en route to a possible WWE return down the road.
Noted Ross, “Certainly Bryan leaves WWE with momentum and with more fans knowing his name than at any point in his career. Plus, who is to say that Bryan will never return to WWE? There may be a great deal more to this matter than any of us know or, honestly, need to know at this time.”
