Bryan Danielson recently opened up about why it was hard to leave pro wrestling as he will retire from a full-time schedule this year. The American Dragon is one of the most decorated and celebrated wrestlers in the business. After becoming a top star in WWE, the star is currently signed to AEW and a part of Blackpool Combat Club.
Since arriving in the Jacksonville-based promotion, he has been delivering acclaimed contests every week or two for the fans. Also, he is currently in his last year as a full-time wrestler. The reason the star gave for his decision to not be able to fully dedicate himself to the industry was his family. Bryan will be appearing as a part-time star after his contract expires later this year.
Speaking with The Washington Post, Bryan Danielson revealed he wanted to be there for his wife and kids before getting older. He also admitted it's hard leaving pro wrestling as he loved it.

“I’m going to end my full-time career here this year so I can be more present and more at home with my kids. They’re at an age where they want me around, and that’s not going to exist forever. There’s that magic before you get a little bit older that I want to be around for. It’s not only hard for the kids, it’s hard on my wife, too, because she’s not even a stay-at-home mom — which is a hard job as it is — she runs three companies, and she’s got her own wine tasting thing in Napa. The hard part of letting go is that I still love it so much," he said. [H/T - EWrestlingNews]
