Daniel Bryan’s days as a full-time in-ring performer appear to be numbered.
Daniel Bryan recently did an interview with BT Sport where he discussed his current WWE contract status and his future in the company.
Bryan started by stating that he will always wrestle has long as he is physically ok to do so, however wants to shift more focus onto his main priorities at home.
“So, I’m confident in my body and longevity, but it’s also like now, my life I’ve got different priorities as far as like I still love wrestling and I feel like I’ll always wrestle as long as I can physically do it. But do I want to continue to wrestle full time when you’ve got two babies at home?”
Bryan mentioned that his current contract is set to expire soon, touching on how he wants to become less of a full-time wrestler.
“So now I am switching priorities in my life where for years wrestling has been the key focus. Like my contract is coming up soon, and we’re looking at me transitioning to maybe less than a full-time wrestler. My time being a full-time wrestler are numbered. I’m going to be more like a full-time dad, part-time wrestler. Wrestling is my side job, daddy is my most important job.”
