I know it was going to be Romans when Lesner walked out with the title. If Cena or Rollins had I could have seen DB win it but with Lesner still as champ no their not going to make him seem like this big bad man only to have DB take him down. He's already over that's no doubt their trying to use the rub of beating Lesner on someone else who isn't completely over and it makes sense.

The whole situation will end up biting WWE in the ass. Like everyone said, it's not really that he didn't win but how weak they made him look.

WWE is adamant to push someone as their top face who is not Bryan. However, they stupidly forgot what happened to Batista last year when they pushed Bryan aside in favor of him. The fans turned on Batista. I am surprised that they would put Reigns in a similar position. It definitely isn't fair to Roman Reigns to have to deal with that.

While the WWE doesn't have to kiss their fans' asses, they do need to realize they need to sell network subscriptions and get TV ratings to stay in business. I've never seen them in 30 years push back as hard against their fanbase as they have in the past year and that's not good for them.

Bray had a good night for sure, came in early, eliminated a few people and lasted pretty late.

This settles it, they took some of the stuff with most potential and shoved it up our asses. We want to see Bryan? Get Batista. Orton. Reigns. Anyone but Bryan. And there's NO way he's getting back in to the main event spot this year. 10/10 Vince you fucking idiot. Last year I wasn't as pissed, just surprised but I knew we still had a shot at making shit happen. This year it's over. :upset:

Reigns was going to win. They wanted to seperate Bryan and him at any cost, and it involved Bryan being tossed like a midcarder. Bray vs Bryan at WM will be good though

I'm surprised the crowd didn't throw trash in the ring

Ah, suddenly I remember the US Grand Prix at Indy in 2005. Several teams pulled out of the race in a protest to tire issues and the fans were so upset they were throwing full cans of Fosters at the cars as they were going into the first turn (where we sat). It was actually a rather scary moment to see those giant bombs of beer crashing onto the track and the drivers trying to avoid it. They were actually endangering the lives of the drivers because they were angry about not having enough cars in the race.

As pissed as the crowd was last night I don't think they were quite to that point but the majority of fans are getting there. They really need to take a look at what's going on and make some changes. Like Foxy said, it's not about kissing the fans asses but it's not about forcing them to kiss yours either.

well, yeah, we all knew Reigns would win....but, really? Because Reigns is going to win this means that Bryan is tossed out like below mid card status? Utter bs no matter how you slice it...they can keep these guys separate and still have Bryan be a main eventer.

Bray and Brian should be good, sure.

Im sure someone sat down whoever booked it and was sold it would be a good idea. They probably would do it over again if they could and have him go much deeper. Still, Bray vs Bryan can work Mania and be amazing. I hope DB gets to work a ironman match with Rollins eventually after Rollins wins the title.

What makes this situation even worse is the fact that they tossed out Bryan midway through the match after using him several times (remember Big Show doing a YES! chant for him when he was injured, but they used it on a 9.99 WWE Network promo?) and his epic return from injury to sell more tickets and Network accounts, they made Reigns of all people win despite everyone clearly not wanting him to and then finally, putting The Rock out there to try and salvage him. This entire situation is fucked. I'll probably calm down soon and get hyped for WM31 as much as I can, but Vince had a money match in Bryan vs Lesnar that more people wanted to see, now we get to hope that Reigns can improve enough in 2 months which should have been the case months ago (despite his injury)...

Here's an awesome booking idea for WWE. I think they might just use it.

Considering how awesome Bryan was booked last night... We're gonna get Bryan vs Wyatt at Mania. Wyatt will go over clean, of course and Bryan... Well, who gives a shit about him. Right, WWE?

He'll be back, as always. Bryan may even be the one to dethrone Seth Rollins.
