I don't understand this part, for two years doctors from different places - some recommended by WWE - have cleared him and Maroon said no, he's the only one whose credibility has been put into question and the one who has a very fishy past when it comes to concussion issues. Eventually Bryan says fuck it and asks Maroon who else does he need approval from, he goes to each doc and once again gets cleared. Then Maroon finally gives the OK. I'd agree with you if every wrestler with a concussion history would've had to go through the same troubles Bryan had but that hasn't been the case at all. Guys like Dreamer, Angle, Ziggler and Taker (and lord knows how many else) didn't go to several doctors, got cleared by them and still got a NO from Maroon. The fact that Bryan is the only one that has had to prove he's fine over and over and over again leads to believe there's more the story than WWE just being worried about him. Makes sense. Shouldn't that be done with every wrestler though, ideally? I also wonder if Bryan would be stubborn enough that if he gets another concussion, he once again goes to take tests from doctors, and once again they say to him he's fine. And it's the same story all over again.

Seems like Davies has little knowledge of Bryan's process, tests and doctors he's visited before these last two months and gotten clearance from.. He also admits he has no clue about the tests he's gotten.. He pretty much just read WWE's statement and wrote about his impression of the situation without knowing anything about it besides the press release. Weird article. Hell, even Chris Nowinski said he was OK with the decision after reading Cantu cleared him. I have no doubt that WWE's decision had more to do with other stuff besides Bryan's health, but to put into question so many doctors over the span of two years without showing any knowledge of what was done or what tests showed seems like a very lazy and kind of irresponsible - considering it was written by a doctor - point of view.

I'd actually love to see Braun and D-Bry tagging together. Put them against a heel Shield.

I mean it's pretty damn simple considering Shane & Bryan both got the shit kicked out of them in two on one attacks by Owens & Zayn and they can easily just decide that those two were the source of their problems with each other anyway so there's no need to continue their beef. Exactly. Thought I completely expect Shane to turn because that's the kind of fuckery WWE loves.

Steenerico is a fucking awesome tag team, come on now.

I always believed it was Ward. And then chose to believe Road Dogg took over and Ward didn't do shit since

I assumed Asuka was coming out to stop the cash in cause she wanted the challenge of wrestling Charlotte but that would be sensible booking so we can't have that on the Road Dogg show I guess I'm kinda impressed how boring this show has been even though it has so many over people in it (Bryan, AJ, Rusev, Usos). That takes a real lack of talent booking wise.

The ending to Charlotte and Natty made no fucking sense, holy shit.

I guess he's talking about Bryan? Can't say I can blame Dave here as most of his reports are from Bryan himself, either in interviews from other places or as a source. ps: Loss, how the hell are we in 2018 and we can't embed tweets on this board?? He was quote tweeting Prichard so I think it was in response to Dave saying his podcast is a work. Which plenty of others have said too. But Bruce was doing the youve never been in the business routine in response to Dave and then JBL got involved. Ahh, I see.

JBL's twitter https://twitter.com/JCLayfield/status/976251643590213633 I guess he's talking about Bryan?

They pointed at the Wrestlemania sign. Unprompted. En masse. The WWE sub-division of DARPA has declared Experiment P952 to be a success. Wouldn't be the first time Bryan creates an awesome, honest moment with fans that's then co-opted and run to the ground by obnoxious fans or WWE.

The fans pointing at the Mania sign when Bryan was wondering when he was gonna come back was kinda dope. Has that happened before?

Would Bryan sign a deal knowing that WWE can go back to not clearing him whenever? I'd guess WWE would want a clause were they can't get sued if something happens to him but I'd also imagine D-Bry would want SOME kind of assurance that if he's cleared by doctors then Maroon can't give him a no just because.

I disagree, only way they get people like me to watch Smackdown is if they announce his clearance before hand.

Really interested in SD's rating this week....

I'm shocked so many people online legit think his health was the main reason for WWE not to clear him before. I mean, of course it was a part of it but I don't think it was the main one, I don't think they care much about that regarding any talent to be honest. Considering how many times Bryan went to different doctors - most of them recommended by WWE - and got cleared by them and NOT WWE. And how the company has let other talent with brain issues wrestle and take bumps, it was always pretty clear to me the biggest issues were about the bad PR they could get if he got another concussion or a more serious injury and the concussion lawsuit. Now they were faced with the chance of him leaving and making buzz elsewhere in a time were the indys and overseas are getting more buzz than ever in the US. So once he got cleared AGAIN by different docs, they let him return. I hope he stay true to his word and changes his style, I miss him too damn much to lose him again because he couldn't control himself.

A very recent one for Nintendo Logic, Fuminori Abe vs Takuya Nomura. https://rutube.ru/video/630a7005c6882e692f3454ef3b9d5f00/?pl_type=user&pl_id=1067514

I get the Bucks winning and even though I haven't seen much of the Usos in the past year, they always delivered when I was watching. But man, what's really criminal about the tag team voting is that once again Strong BJ got nothing after a really good year. I'm still pissed the match against Akiyama & Omori didn't happen because Yuji got injured

Nice little match here with Togo da gawd doing a great control section over Nomura's leg after the young breh got a little too cocky. The comeback is done really well with Takuya fighting his ass off to try to even things out, loved his selling of the leg every time he connected a kick, it wasn't about fighting smart this time, he wanted to show Togo he could deliver damage no matter in how much pain he was in. Ending made sense. Hard not to have fun in these 12 minutes

Richeyedwards FACELOOCK~!!

At this point I think they won't have much trouble getting 10,000 people but IF they "only" get 8-9k they'll work the number so it's a sellout anyway. Even if Dave reports that the real number is lower, I don't think his report would gather enough strength to overcome the praise and celebration the "sellout" would get. Hell, it would probably end up with people fighting Dave over the real number and calling him a WWE stooge or something.

Isn't the "rumor" just Jericho saying on Twitter he's not working for New Japan anymore, or are there other reports/sources? Jericho's gotta be the least trustful source when it comes to these kind of stuff, though they haven't done shit in 2 months with that potential feud

Man you guys really hate the KO/Sami/Shane angle, I guess not watching SD helps

That main event was awesome to watch. I wonder if having 6 guys doing a fun as fuck spotfest is easier in a 6 pack challenge setting instead of an Elimination Chamber in 2018 or it was just because of booking/timing/talent involved.

Rusev da real MVP.
