I've heard two Bryan interviews promoting his book. In the first he was asked about his health and he said he was feeling great and just trying to get cleared. The second one was on the Cheap Heat podcast (Grantland) were he went more in detail about it. He's been 100% cleared with no limitations by a doctor in Phoenix he called "the Superbowl neurologist" - I guess he was trying to say he was the best out there. Not sure it's the same guy he got Muscle Activation Therapy for his arm issue - but the WWE doctor is hesitant to clear him . He basically said the company was of the opinion of him not wrestling any more and there's a lot of "complicated stuff" for him to get back in the ring. He did admit it was good that the company was looking out for him (they are also looking after themselves but that's another story) but he didn't agree with what they thought was best for him. Not sure if it will lead to a Kurt Angle situation - minus the "crazy" part - but it seemed to me that if he can't wrestle for WWE anymore he'll just do it somewhere else. He also confirms once again he got the Wrestlemania Main Event thanks to Punk leaving.

Wasn't Galloway pretty much put permanently in the doghouse after he got supposedly beat up by his girlfriend??

After all the hope Brock re-signing gave me for fresh matches, we get another Taker match instead of the many options that are more compelling to watch. Meh.

Casas is the only guy that makes me forget how fucking horrible and distracting Lucha commentary is. I've already talked about how I can barely watch Lucha with how unbearable commentary is, so the guy who is able to make me enjoy the action and tune out play-by-play he gets my vote.

WWE treating Barclays like it's Sumo Hall.

Absolutely loved this. But did Will (or someone) fell asleep in the first 30-40 minutes? I could've sworn I was hearing someone snoring or doing some very heavy breathing for a long while. It was very distracting and very funny

Meltzer was saying on WOR how WWE tends to change their mind about the MITB winner at the last minute (Bryan, Sandow) and then Vince hating the winner the next day. Don't think he'll hate Fella but I agree that he will be sorry they gave the briefcase to him.

This is fucking bullshit RIP Dusty. True legend.

TEXAS DEATH MATCH. Gotta see it to believe it. But good lord I was sold just by Austin switching to Stone Cold at the end of the podcast. It was like he just went into promo mode for a future video package out of the blue, just in case.

Dusty Finish? Man I can't believe he actually won

How is it protecting a finisher by kicking out of it on a "debut" match? The fact that he still beat Cena with it makes it way less harmful but they could've done better job considering all the moves Owens did. I mean it wasn't that big of a deal but Cena kicking out of it was completely unnecesary.

Holy shit, he really is their new darling. Thank god he won, it got to annoying indy levels of kick outs but I'm happy with who won so I don't care

Cena's gotta be trolling with this loud ass spot calling. It's worse than ever.

Is Roman turning tonight?

So, it wasn't his neck and it wasn't a concussion. PWInsider is saying it's his shoulder that is causing him trouble. Dude is really breaking down, I still don't see him retiring but I hope he has a nice run in Tough Enough and then takes a year off to fully rest and only then see if his body can take a comeback.

I'm surprised Beadle didn't "turn off" her WWE card after learning Austin's history with DV. I mean, she so adamant on taking a stand and fight for those rights....just like when she sat next to Jim Lampley for an interview (another guy with DV problems). There's not a lot WWE can do with someone who picks and chooses like that.

How long was Dolph out when he had the concussion that ended up with him coming back and dropping the belt to Del Rio?

So Bryan has been pulled from every show/live event until June 28th.

R.I.P. Also looking forward for the career retrospective people will do about him. One of the people I kinda feel I should know more about.

Man, I hope not. Lana swerving Cena - who "quits" to save her from being hit by Rusev - to give Rusev the W, and then calling Cena (and all Americans) fools for falling for the damsel in distress would be so fucking money.

So they are going with the Melina/Foley finish for the I Quit match at Payback?

Actually, wasn't his match against Wyatt in the same "will happen if DB is healthy" status like the one against Barret for Sunday?

I wouldn't expect anything more than a PR fest. Steph can only say something interesting if she's being lead or provoked by the interviewer, don't see Jericho doing that at all.

Report from wrestlezone today. Not sure if there's any other source but I'd take it with a grain of salt.
