You guys don't get it.
The fact that everyone's mad right now is great for the WWE. They realize that they have a Rock-type atmosphere with Daniel Bryan, and they don't want him to fizzle out prematurely. That's why he's with the Wyatts right now. They're making him like this underdog that everyone wants to win but just can't get out of that shadow.
Remember how The Rock became as big as he was in the 90s? He was the company's top draw for so long even without the title, and he gained it after so many various insignificant feuds. I think WWE is doing the right thing with Bryan. They see the potential. If they try to make him like super-Cena right now, people will end up not caring about him after a short span of time.
Bryan is only starting. It's only been a short time since he went solo and the "yes" phenomenon went out. He still needs buildup and there are many years left in the tank. It's still Cena's WWE right now. They can't replace the guy yet until he completely turns heel. I think that's the big deal here.
You heard me. That's the biggest possible draw you can get. Cena turns heel on Bryan, essentially passing the torch. You gotta remember, the majority of the fanbase of WWE right now is kids. Kids love the hell out of Cena. When Cena turns heel on Bryan, all the kids will have their loyalties transferred. Right now, it's still too dangerous to do it because Bryan still isn't big enough with the young crowd yet.
But look at what's happening: Wyatts just beat the hell out of Cena. It looks like Cena and Bryan will team against the Wyatts.. and hopefully, this is the time when Cena will turn heel on Bryan while they're teaming.
I love the direction it's going. I don't want Bryan to be rushed. |
Exactly that. Bryan is in a big push since Team Hell No. And since he entered WWE, they always liked to book him like the underdog (losing streak at NXT, losing to Sheamus in WM that quick), because it draws money. People will pay to see if now he will succeed. They aren't deaf, they hear the croud reacting. And the bigger crowds of the night were for Bryan and Reigns. But I don't think we will see a heel turn from Cena. Maybe they try a face vs. face match like Hogan vs. Warrior and that could be awesome.

not sustainable. hogan and warrior ended up being a tag team later on. a company can only have two big time faces on top for only a few months before they have to kick down or force a heel turn on one of them. same thing happened with stone cold and the rock. as bryan progresses, he will eventually come face to face with cena, and cena will either have to make a heel turn or get kicked down. i don't see him getting kicked down, not with his popularity with the kids, so it has to be a heel turn.
