Backstage News on Why Daniel Bryan Was Sent Home from the WWE European Tour, Reportedly Suffered a Concussion

April 17, 2015

As noted, Daniel Bryan was sent home from WWE’s current European tour, and WWE issued a statement noting they sent Bryan home as a precautionary measure.

According to F4WOnline.com, Bryan suffered a concussion at some point during his match against Sheamus last week, and officials were at least aware Bryan was banged up after the bout as he hasn’t wrestled a singles match since.

If WWE officials knew at the time that Bryan was concussed, he wouldn’t have competed in matches at all following the injury, so it’s likely Bryan was not officially diagnosed with the concussion until after this week’s Smackdown tapings, at which time WWE decided to pull him from the tour.

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.
