According to The Wrestling Observer, former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan has been cleared to return to the ring by a UCLA neurology specialist.

The report notes Bryan recently underwent a battery of tests by a UCLA doctor to determine if he was fit to return to in-ring wrestling, and the doctor informed him he could.

As noted, Bryan has been publicly insisting for awhile now that he is ready to return to the ring, but he has yet to receive medical clearance from WWE. Keep in mind, for Bryan to return to the ring he must receive clearance by WWE, which as of this writing has yet to happen.
