Apparently a few days ago he tried to give his notice to leave WWE but because of his injuries, his contract is frozen. WWE doctors are the only ones not giving him clearance so I think this may be a stunt similar to what AJ Lee did. She called it retirement so she could get out of her contract but in DB's situation, he can retire and eventually come out of retirement after his no-compete is up and sign elsewhere.
Either way, I'm sure WWE is happy that this is finally over with because they were tired of him being a liability to them. Sad it has to end like this, though.

He'll be on Raw to talk about it tonight.

You're saying this 'retirement' is DB wanting to work for someone else?
I know he had complaints about not being able to work (I.e. That the wwe was refusing to let him compete) but you're now stating they were 'tired' of him and his injuries.
I've been out of the loop so if you can offer a little clarity beyond what you just posted...

Elaborate Sparky...

DB has been to multiple doctors outside of WWE and WWE is the only one not clearing him. I think it's clear that they don't want to clear him because they don't want to be held liable if he hurts his neck again (or worse, dies while competing). He's said in the past that he wouldn't change the way he goes about things so he'll always be an injury risk.
Also, if he's cleared, the crowd will continue to revolt until he's in the title picture and he's too much of an injury concern to put him in a main title picture again.
The first report that came out was that he gave his notice to WWE but he wasn't allowed to do that because his contract is currently frozen due to his injury and lack of clearance. He tweeted a month ago that he wanted WWE to clear him already so he clearly wants to get back out there and wrestle again but he can't do that while under the contract of WWE. So if WWE won't let him out of his contract then this is the only way out (just like AJ Lee went about things). The only thing stopping DB from wrestling right now is WWE's doctors not clearing him.
The Yes Movement was one of the biggest things WWE has had in a long time but it took Ziggler a long time to get back into the good graces of Vince after his concussions and I, personally, don't think he wants DB back in case something incredibly serious happens.

This is apparently a similar situation to Mysterio after he suffered multiple injuries and had his contract frozen. His contract can stay frozen unless he's cleared or takes WWE to court and it seems like he's not interested in doing the latter so he's going the retirement route. We'll see in time if he goes elsewhere but my guess is that he will.
Note...this is just my opinion. The only facts here are that he tried to give his notice but he couldn't and that all doctors he's seen but the WWE doctors have cleared him. I just feel that there's no reason to give your notice if you're just going to retire for good. It doesn't make sense to me.

The way this is going, I'm starting to think against my theory. Kinda has an Edge feel to it. Time will tell but if this doesn't turn out to be a storyline (which some have already broken that 3rd wall and say it isn't) then I think this is real.
I feel like they wouldn't get this extravagant in their goodbye if they knew that he'd just turn around and leave.

I'm not sure, I was just going off of what I read.
Either way...it was apparently under really tight wraps before he announced it on Twitter yesterday. Just a few higher ups backstage knew about it so they could get the videos together.
Very heart warming segment. And very cool to see the aftermath on the Network with everyone on stage breaking character for him and Vince giving him a hug and Triple H and Stephanie standing up front.
