WWE News: Why did Daniel Bryan pull out of WWE Live Events?

It is unknown if the reason for his absence is his career-ending injury blight

WWE seems to have suffered another blow-out on the Road to WrestleMania 32. Injuries have retarded the engine and the power they thought it had especially in the World Heavyweight Championship picture, isn’t equating to momentum.

The juggernaut is further staggered with the postponement of all its Live Events with Daniel Bryan as the USP. The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion’s withdrawal from the ‘Daniel Bryan Appreciation Night’ at Madison Square Garden and the post-WrestleMania UK Tour has forced a postponement of the events.

This official statement was publicized by the MSG to the ticket-holders of the event:

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Dear WWE Ticket Holder:

Due to a scheduling conflict, the ceremony to honor former WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Bryan on March 25, 2016 has been postponed.

While this honoring may occur at a later date, WWE Live - Road to WrestleMania, this Friday at Madison Square Garden, will still take place as scheduled. The event will feature many of your favorite WWE Superstars. After nearly 5 years, Triple H returns to action in the ring in the world’s most famous arena, Madison Square Garden! Also see Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, Ric Flair, Sheamus, AJ Styles, Bray Wyatt, Kevin Owens and many more!

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and look forward to your continued support of the WWE and Madison Square Garden.

Sincerely,

The Madison Square Garden Company

The WWE have disclosed that Daniel Bryan himself asked to be exempted from the events because he wanted some time off, according to wrestlinginc.com. Bryan is still however, advertised for the WrestleMania 32 Axxess VIP signing on April 3rd.
