Don't see that happening buddy. WWE is putting all there eggs into the Bryan basket. As it sits right now he will be the guy for at least the next year. At least I can watch wwe network then lol. LOL, There you go.

So what are we bitching about now? Whether or not this was the initial plan all along?

Watch Triple H win and the main event remain the same.

The fans didn't force anything. Even if Punk was going to wrestle Triple H at Maina Bryan was always going to be added to the main event. Hell it has been gradually building weekly since Summer Slam. But they have built Bryan perfectly for this. I'm sorry, but I think you're delusional. They brought back Batista as a conquering hero and it failed. They turned Daniel Bryan heel and it failed so badly they changed it after two weeks. They put the Big Show in a title match and it failed. They put Cena in a title match and the fans didn't care. They have been doing everything they can to NOT have Daniel Bryan in the main event for the title at WM - but the fans have been buying none of it. So they finally gave in to what the fans want. Maybe he'll lose to Big Nose at Mania. Maybe he'll lose in the main event. Maybe he'll get the belt and get a weak ass crappy title run like Rey or the Crippla or another guy management wasn't fully behind. Bryan was never turned heel... It was obvious what the Wyatt thing was from the moment it happened. How anyone can think that was an attempted heel turn is beyond me.

So WWE made the right move, ok and? Doesn't change the fact they still suck and it sure as hell doesn't mean the fans were complaining for nothing. I mean in retrospect Bryan should of just won the Rumble. Don't forget the fans booed the main event WM29 ending. Uh, no we didn't? I was live at the show and I didn't hear any boos. LOL

This is a million times better then him winning the Rumble.
He beats HHH and wins the title in the main event of Mania.
It will be one perfect night for him.

I call "bullcrap" to anyone who claims this was the plan all along. If Punk didn't walk out and Batista wasn't booed when he came back, we would have got Batista vs. Orton one-on-one and HHH vs. Punk one-on-one. Bryan would probably win the battle royal or something. This wasn't an intricate plan, this was reactionary to not just the "internet fans," but the ENTIRE fanbase turning on their plans.

Everybody that's been bitching about Bryan not being in the title match at WrestleMania is dazed and confused and now just has to bitch in a scattershot fashion because they hate the idea that they've got what they wanted.

Oh my god who cares if this was the plan all along or not... the mark of a good business is not to be infallible, but to adapt and turn negatives into positives...
WWE has done that, the could have just done a big 'F' you to the fans and stuck Bryan in some dead end match, but they didnt, they adapted it.
I for one am actually happy it has turned out like this, the long struggle and facing adversary will make the pay off even better at Mania if Bryan wins

Yes it was worth it. Bryan will FINALLY win the Title for good and will also take down shovel man at the biggest stage of them all. Imagine Bryan making HHH and Batista tap in the same night?

That is the mark of a good business. History tells us that WWE haven't always done that.. and that's probably why some fans were fearing that Bryan would not be added into the match. I was not one of those fans as I always suspected they'd change the title match (this negative response has been unlike any kind of 'fan uprising' that WWE have had to sit through before, that I can remember). But they have.. and it's a good thing. And it's something to look forward to. Like I said, it'd be silly to automatically believe that they're going to give Bryan the title at Mania. They might... but it's not nailed on. There's a pretty good chance they'll give Tista or Orton the belt.. I think the best thing would be to have Bryan win in some kind of Russo-esque fashion.. just to throw a double spanner in the works.. but a clean win would evoke a fantastic reaction nonetheless.

So what was it, a planned two week storyline? It was just terrible. I think you are being way too forgiving of the WWE's dreadful booking of Goatface.

They turned Daniel Bryan heel and it failed so badly they changed it after two weeks. So by that logic, the John Cena heel turn that everyone has been wanting for so long already happened in 2010 when he joined the Nexus? I guess you can't satisfy everyone. After months of people bitching and moaning that Daniel Bryan didn't win the WWE Championship, he finally gets a shot and what happens? The bitching and moaning continues...

If WWE listened to their fans, Bryan would have been champion months ago. Or he would have won the Rumble. Let's not give WWE all the credit in the world because they did something right for a change. I'd much rather have a Wrestlemania moment than a WWE Battleground moment anyhow. Exactly! I would rather them do a slow burn for Bryan up to Mania than have him win it at a random PPV. Fans nowadays have no patience for a storyline. They want everything at that very moment and can't wait for a few damn months.

It appeared to be a longer storyline that would have had the same outcome. I would bet the creative meetings held before the rumble saw some of what was coming, and thus a back up plan was implemented in case things went the way they did.

Of course. It just goes to show that WWE genuinely got it wrong by having Batista win the Rumble.

I'm hoping now that Kane and Stephanie cost Bryan the Match at Wrestlemania, and Vince comes down and adds him to the Main Event anyway.
They would of been better off either making it a Fatal Four Way for the Title, or officially announcing Bryan for the two Matches. It takes a lot away from the outcome of the Triple H vs Daniel Bryan Match now.

Like CM Punk returning and costing Batista, setting up a feud between Orton/Bryan and Punk/Batista?

Of course. It just goes to show that WWE genuinely got it wrong by having Batista win the Rumble. While true, I believe they had 2 plans to begin with. It wasn't as if Batista had been gone for an extremely long time and had been a face when he left. They probably had no idea what reception he was going to get. I haven't seen it, but did he get a massive pop or a mixed reaction? I don't remember reading it on the report I saw.
