Daniel Bryan is one of the most well-known and beloved wrestlers of the modern age and made 2014 his year after he finally won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31 in a Triple Threat Match against Randy Orton and Batista. Shortly after that, he has not been able to wrestle due to multiple injuries since June.

Bryan made a return to WWE in late 2014 after the downfall of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon's "The Authority" faction to add insult to injury but only temporary as they would return to power under a month later.

Next year, on WrestleMania 32, he was able to capture the elusive WWE Intercontinental Championship to cap off his career as we would soon find out that it was his last title.
It was announced today (Australian time) through Twitter that Bryan, after consulting his doctor due to sudden numbness in his arm, has been forced to retire due to not being medically cleared much like Edge before him in 2011.
