WWE Smackdown Live Coverage And Results (3/20) Dallas, Texas

Welcome to Smackdown Live and this week we are at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas and we kick things off with a retrospective on the career of Daniel Bryan. The show then begins with the General Manager of Smackdown Live, Daniel Bryan, making his way out to the ring to a loud "Yes!" chant from the crowd.

We get a "Daniel Bryan" chant and Bryan takes the mic and says last week something tragic happened to Shane McMahon however he will address that later because the two people he needs to talk to are not here yet

Bryan then says a couple of years back he was forced to retire but focused on being grateful and he has a lot to be grateful for. He has amazing family, friends and the best fans in the world and an amazing beautiful wife and when he was depressed and angry and trying to be grateful and she saw he kept trying to get back into the ring she said it's wonderful to be grateful but he needs to fight for his dreams and she's the one who encouraged him to go see specialists and they kept giving him good reviews she said go see another specialist

When all the specialists cleared him she said he needs to fight for his dreams and that's what Daniel Bryan does. Over the past several weeks WWE has sent him to the best specialists around the world and they all said the same thing and it is this, "You Are Cleared". He says he has a lot of thank yous and he doesn't know where or when he will get back in the ring. The crowd starts a "Wrestlemania" chant and he asks if they think that's a good idea.

Bryan says he doesn't know if that will happen but will he compete in a WWE ring again? YES!

Bryan calls Owens and Zayn two of the best performers of this generation and when Shane said he was living vicariously through Owens and Zayn he was right.

But when they say they got a little carried away, that's more than a little carried away because they assaulted their boss.
