Daniel Bryan kicked off Smackdown Live with an emotional promo discussing how he was cleared today to return to in-ring action for WWE.
Bryan thanked Brie Bella, his wife, for pushing him to see various outside WWE doctors and make his case for why he should wrestle again. Because of that, as of today, he is cleared for action.
He also teased his return to the ring which led the live crowd to start chanting, “Wrestle-Mania“. Daniel Bryan nodded in approval without saying much more.
