Even though Daniel Bryan saw his WWE contract come to an end a few weeks ago, WWE legend Ric Flair doesn’t think Bryan is going anywhere anytime soon.
Flair recently appeared on the My World Podcast with Conrad Thompson to discuss his thoughts on what Daniel Bryan will do. Ric said “He doesn’t have an option, he’s going to go home with Brie. He’s one of the nicest kids I’ve ever met in the business and he wouldn’t leave the WWE. I would have a very difficult time believing he would leave the WWE, if he does, I’d be very surprised. That whole family, everybody’s tied to the WWE.”
Ric continued talking about Bryan, saying “I was under the impression he wanted to go home and spend more time with the kids. I don’t know what he’s going to do, whatever he does I wish him nothing but the best. He’s a great worker and just being honest with you, I did not think that at his size he could make a difference, but he has. Despite his size, he is really a hell of a hand.”
Despite Ric’s own daughter Charlotte Flair being involved with someone who left WWE (Andrade), Flair does not think it is realistic to believe that Daniel Bryan would leave WWE with Brie Bella slated for a return at some point in the future. There are multiple wrestling couples that have one person in WWE (Lana is and Miro is not), but Flair doesn’t seem too concerned.
