Daniel Bryan shocked the WWE Universe when he said that he felt an "odd detachment" at WrestleMania 37 and didn't feel the need to be in the main event. Despite that, he put on an incredible performance at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

He even revealed that his WWE contract is expiring soon - one that he signed three years back in 2018. It will be interesting to see what his next step is. WrestleMania 37 seemed to be a sign for Bryan that he needed to move into a more part-time role.

According to Fightful, Daniel Bryan might be looking at options outside of WWE once his contract expires:

According to Fightful, while discussing his expiring WWE contract, Daniel Bryan said that he’s trying to find a way to wrestle for WWE and for other companies.

We hope this isn't true because it's most likely just a negotiating tactic from Daniel Bryan to get a better deal from WWE. We fully expect him to sign a new lucrative contract and transition into a part-time role.
