Update: WWE Denying Daniel Bryan Suffered a Concussion

April 19, 2015

As we reported over the weekend, Dave Meltzer noted on his most recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that Daniel Bryan was sent home from the WWE European tour because he was diagnosed with a concussion which was believed to have been suffered during Bryan’s Smackdown match against Sheamus.

Prior to the report of Bryan suffering a concussion surfaced, WWE issued a statement noting Bryan had been sent home from the tour as a “precautionary measure” and offered no further details on Bryan’s condition.

Both Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez are maintaining they were told Bryan suffered a concussion, however WWE is reportedly denying the claim, noting only that Bryan is “banged up.”

Whatever the diagnosis, here’s to hoping the issues don’t involve Bryan’s already injured neck, as that could lead not only to future health problems for Bryan, but also a shortened in-ring career.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
