Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella appeared on ABC’s “Good Morning America” this morning to discuss Daniel Bryan’s retirement from WWE due to concussions. Here are some highlights from the appearance:
– Bryan revealed that he had been hiding his post-concussion seizures from Brie until she witnessed one, which she called heart breaking. Bryan said that he begged her not to tell anyone because he knew WWE would end his career if they knew what he was going through.
– When asked about wrestling being “fake,” Bryan said, “It’s not real and it’s not fake. When I get slammed, I am really getting slammed, but I’m helping him slam me.”
– Brie was asked about the rumors that she is also looking to hang up the boots. She confirmed that the news is true and that her retirement announcement will probably come “this summer.”
