As we covered earlier today, AEW's Bryan Danielson gave a fantastic interview on WFAN's Moose & Maggie in New York City,
During the conversation, Danielson discussed his forced-upon retirement, taking the blame for it as it came about due to his decision to lie to WWE, commenting:
"When I was kind of forced to retire, it was more based out of, like, because I lied to them – that’s a good lesson to a lot of people, when you're talking your medical history, be very honest, because some things were uncovered. (They said), 'Wait a second. It's not that we don't think you can wrestle. We can't trust you anymore with your body.'"
Later on Danielson commented on where he stands personally and with his career:
“Proving things is focused on other people. I’m not interested in that. I feel like I’ve proven to everybody that I’m pretty good at what I do.... I see these next three years as kind of my last as a full-time wrestler... In my mind, it’s not like I’m tapering off – this is the climax of my career.”
