From PWMania.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Ring of Honor's Bryan Danielson is looking to pursue a career in Mixed Martial Arts when his ROH contract expires in May. The American Dragon has been training five hours a day at the Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas, and plans to continue his training in Thailand this summer.

Yeah, this isn't that surprising though. I've heard about this for months.

Not that shocking, heard about this a couple of months ago as well. I didn't know that his contract ended so soon though.

I'm not too worried about this one for some reason. It's too vague, at the moment. Until he says he's never coming back, I'll believe it. Plus lets say he trains for the summer, whos to say he wont return to ROH after?

Plus with his latest Newswire promo putting over T. Black it made me think he was headed to the wwe.

Him leaving will make a huge hole in the ROH roster and right now I don't see anyone that will fill it.

It seems Danielson might not leave. He wants to continue working for ROH, but not under contract. He wants to be able to work overseas and take time off when needed.

It also appears that there's a pretty big number of ROH wrestlers whose contract end in May.

Yep, like 15 wrestlers signed 2 year deals right before Respect is Earned I. No secret there. The question is who's going to resign.

Who's going to replace Danielson? Well no one...but Quack can try.

I doubt it will be Quack. The man's too busy running CHIKARA (And wrestling there), to sign a contract with ROH.

One could hope. I'd love to see him in some evil genius heel role in ROH.

I think Quack is probably the only wrestler in the indys today not in ROH that could be compared to Danielson.

I think ROH will get along fine with Danielson gone. No biggie really. Bryan Danielson is amazing, yes but there are a ton of rising stars that could benefit with Danielson not on the shows.

I don't really blame Danielson, he's done all there is to do in the Indys and he'd only be buried by incompetence in the big 2.

I'm sure he's looking for a new challenge.

Losing Danielson, Sweeney, Tyler Black, Generico. The Briscos, Lynns not getting any younger, DAMN! lol. I've never heard of a promotion dying due to all their roster leaving or being injured right when they hit it big, but I guess ROH will be the first. lol

What concerns me is that Pearce has shown 0 ability to build new talent up.
