According to sources, Daniel Bryan’s injury is a concussion that occurred during his match with Sheamus at the SmackDown tapings after WrestleMania. The issue is described as career-threatening. People within WWE have known about it for some time but were told to keep it quiet and WWE issued denials after the initial reports came out when Bryan was sent home from the European tour.
It is believed that the concussion issues were denied because Bryan worked some matches after it was suffered, which would reflect badly on the company.
