Don’t do it, Bryan

Back in the day, superstars who were injured during a match had one goal from that point onwards – finish the bout. No matter how bad the injury maybe, they felt that it was their duty to carry on until the very end, but over the last few years that mentality has subsided, and that may be putting it lightly.

Referees are required to throw the match out if a real injury has been detected, in addition to preventing the injured superstar from being attacked by their opponent.

In recent times, the likes of Daniel Bryan have suffered from this, with a bout against Randy Orton being called off after he seemed to suffer an injury to his neck.
