Need to Applaud WWE's Handling of Daniel Bryan

Probably if he beats HHH he'll get in. Or Hogan will put him in even after losing to HHH.

For me it's not about "oh i think Bryan should be champion, anything else is garbage"

i'm enjoying his run, im enjoying the fans going apecrap for the guy. but im not stupid, this kind of thing can only last so long. eventually people are going to tire of cheering the guy to no end only to have him not be the champion and it will fizzle out into a more normal level at best.

either way it's going to fizzle out into normalcy. but why push the envelope? the entire thing is hanging by a thread, you can only create soo much hype and anticipation followed by disappointment. it'd be like going to your favorite restaurant, ordering your favorite meal and it not tasting right....but the chef says "wait until next time you taste it! it'll be amazing!" then you come back and its still not as good, so the chef says "oh i forgot the salt, NEXT time it will be perfect"

eventually you would stop going, and it would end up being the time he finally got it right.

funny how WWE has the chance to make a big star, they did it with Cena so many years ago....

he got over with the fans, he won some mid-card titles, he worked his way into a WWE title match at Wrestlemania and won. He hasn't looked back since. He didn't have to constantly be screwed, or dragged through the mud, or told (weekly) that he wasn't good enough.
same with Batista
Randy Orton

newer guys like Big E & Roman Reigns are slowly being pushed and made to look amazing, while Bryan has had to spend all his time "proving" he's good.
thats the biggest issue with this whole thing

i've been entertained with daniel bryan with basically all they've put him in, truth is perhaps maybe he IS one of those people that don't need the title. however, the amount of people being so vocal both online and in arenas makes it evident that him main eventing wrestlemania was a very important move for wwe to make, and they didn't.

i watch less now than i did before the royal rumble, and i'm less interested. what the underlying reason is for that to be honest i don't know, but batista being back and being used in such a big role/cm punk leaving/lack of big matches + proper build at mania/and hhh vs bryan (i just feel bryan could have a far better match with someone else) are definitely factoring in.

I really think that Daniel will get added to the Main Event.

Last night, I was just waiting for Hogan or Vince to come out, take Bryan's side, and make the stipulation that if Daniel beats HHH, he goes on to make the WWE title match a Triple Threat.

It didn't happen last night, but I'd imagine it will happen very soon.

Also, they had all three of them in the ring last night, and Orton/Tista were pretty much acting like allies backstage before the Main Event.

They've made mistakes along the way, but I agree that Monday was great and things have been working out to make people go even crazier for Bryan.

Also, I still firmly believe he'll somehow be put into the main event at Mania. He'll still wrestle Triple H, but there's no way the title match will stay heel vs heel without putting a third man into it. And they would be stupid for it not to be him.

I know there has been an argument over whether this was planned from the beginning or not. And I do think some aspects have been, though obviously not all of it. However, the plan now is very much to make him the star. The fact that he dominates every situation he's in until the numbers take over is proof of that. Sure, his match with Batista was short, but he had almost all of the offense.

I agree that he should get that belt at Mania, and while I won't go so far as to say it's the only way, I will say I think it's going to happen. I also think either Vince or Hogan will play some role in it (guest hosts usually have some sort of kayfabe booking power). Either way,this will work out for Bryan in the end. Remember, it was a year and a half from when Austin first hit big until he won the title.

The bottom line is even Stevie Wonder can see what needs to be done.

And you guys really think winning the title over Orton and Batista solidifies him as a top guy over BEATING HHH?

Seriously?!

This is 2014. If this were the 80s or the early 90s or even the mid 90s, I would agree with you about the title.

There are stars who are bigger then the title. HHH is one of them and beating him cleanly in the middle of the ring at Mania does so much more then winning the title.

I just spent the last 2 minutes watching Bryan knee Cena in the face over and over...

You still said HHH rarely loses. Which is false, unless you just mean that he rarely wrestles.
It's not about beating Orton and Batista. It's about finally getting the big one at the biggest WrestleMania of all time.
