Daniel Bryan Pulled From UK Tour And Future WWE Live Events

Daniel Bryan has been pulled from his scheduled appearance at this Friday’s WWE live event, as well as several further house shows after WrestleMania.
The recently retired superstar was due to take part in a ‘Daniel Bryan Appreciation Night’ segment at this weekend’s show at Madison Square Garden, but this will no longer go ahead. Both WWE and MSG have cited a scheduling conflict as the reason behind this change of plans.
Bryan was also advertised to appear at this weekend’s house show in Trenton, New Jersey – as well as the post-WrestleMania 32 tour of the United Kingdom – but is now no longer promoted for these events.
A report from Marc Middleton includes a statement from WWE, who simply said:
‘Daniel Bryan requested time off and it was granted.’
Although no further reasons have been given at this time, it’s possible that Bryan simply wants to enjoy his retirement, rather than taking part in a long, draining tour across the Atlantic.

Although Bryan may be stepping away from the limelight for a while, wife Brie Bella is still very much part of the WrestleMania 32 programme. She is thought to be taking part in an eight-woman tag match, teaming alongside fellow babyfaces Alicia Fox, Natalya, and Paige.
