Do you think Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H from WM30 was the ultimate WM underdog story? Then the main event afterwards? I'm thinking it is. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Yeah I think it was.
Rey mysterio back in 06 was similar but wasn't as effective to me.

Rey in 06 @ WM22 was similar but he wasn't on last and the match was too short and deprived of drama.

Rey has always been cast as an underdog, and that's even become part of his gimmick. But Bryan had 2 matches! And against huge guys like Triple H, Batista, and Randy Orton. Sure, Rey was in a triple threat against Angle and Orton, but the focus wasn't really on him overcoming the odds, it was about winning the WHC in Eddie's honor. Bryan's story had so much inertia coming into WrestleMania. Couple that with Stephanie's outside involvement, the Batista-bomb/RKO spot on the announce table, the stretcher tease, and the much celebrated victory complete with pyro, confetti, and 75,000+ cheering for him. |

Yes it was the ultimate underdog story, it was built to perfection. IMO

Reys entire run relied on Eddies death. It was hard to get into. Bryan's was pure excitement and build. It was almost crowd powered so to speak.
