WWE was the biggest obstacle when it came to Daniel Bryan's in-ring return. He had gone to all corners of the United States of America and consulted some of the biggest CTE and Neurological experts. From every single one, he was medically cleared to compete.

However, Dr. Joseph Maroon, WWE's Doctor based in Pittsburgh, was the one who refused to clear him. Daniel Bryan openly stated that he held nothing against WWE for doing so, understanding that their main concerns were his health and they didn't want to be responsible for him suffering a potentially life-threatening injury in the ring.

Moreover, the company has the PR factor to think about, which is very important whether people agree or not. It wouldn't be a very good look for WWE if they cleared him to return only for him to prematurely retire again.

Perhaps this is why they run a test on him after every match and ensure that he's perfectly fine. WWE simply doesn't want to push his luck and probably was on-board with the decision of him being a full-timer for two more years.
