Last night on Monday Night Raw, Daniel Bryan officially retired in one of the most emotional goodbyes in WWE history. It’s not just because he was forced to say goodbye early.

That’s a lot of it, but it was because he was so beloved by the WWE Universe and it took almost two years to finally get to the resolution and the bitter pill that he is done.

The fact is that Bryan Danielson can display his gratefulness all he wants, but it’s been the WWE Universe and an amazing majority of his peers over the years that have shown their gratuity for his career, and it’s taken over the wrestling industry.

#?ThankYouDanielBryan?

Daniel Bryan called it a career last night on ?#?RAW? – but what a career it was. He put everything he had into everything he did, and changed the wrestling world forever. As good as he was wherever he went – from Independents, to Japan, to ROH, Bryan Danielson just did not strike many (including me) as a WWE guy. But, when given the chance, he showed that he could not only be A ?#?WWE? guy, but THE WWE guy, and by the time he was done, had been part of not only some of the great matches in company history, but some of its most memorable, funniest non-wrestling segments as well. His touching farewell speech on last night’s RAW may have been the most memorable of all.
