It's Orlando.

Two years in a row Daniel Bryan fans have killed the credibility of the Royal Rumble, because they think they should book it. Love to see a backlash from people who don't live and breath Daniel Bryan.

Well I am a Bryan fan, but don't think he should be in the Mania main event. So balance partly readressed if it needed it.

I would have loved seeing him face off against ziggy. Would be thunderous, and im not sure who i would cheer for! Maybe they should make it a fatal four way instead

I care, it ruined the Rumble and it's big stipulation two years in a row. I was mad when Orton got shoehorned into Mysterio's match and I hated it last year.

People cry about the titles not being special, people cry about gimmick matches not being special, people cry when nothing is ever followed through.....but only when it's convenient for them.

But thats life for you. We live in a very self-serving world. I doubt its gonna happen anyway so I wouldn't worry about it.

Self serving is right, just a little consistency is all I ask from critics.

Another way to look at this though is that Reigns could still go over in a triple threat match which might be a better as a result of Bryan adding something different to it like Rollins did at the rumble. As they proved with Benoit in 2004 someone can still go over strong in a three way.

Triple threat for the title two PPV's in a row is weaksause. Reigns winning the title by going over Bryan doesnt do anyone any favours.

I'm a Bryan fan, but I am completely against this for all the reasons stated above, and I just don't think he's ready for it. He's a great mechanic, sure, but that's all he is. His promos are just okay even on his best days. They should put him in some solid non title matches until he comes up with a character that doesn't equate to "mini-Cena".

I'm a Bryan fan as well and even I don't think it should be that way. I've thought about it and the way I see it is that Bryan had his special moment last year. This year Reigns will get the chance to have his special moment, if he does beat Brock, and it shouldn't be taken away from him just because of some fans being all upset not getting their way.

I actually like Reigns too, and I think he and Bryan had a really good match at Fastlane last night. He showed that he deserves this chance and hopefully proved some haters wrong.

Crowd won't boo half as much as people think.

Reigns/Lesnar isn't a match....it's a fight. You don't get many big fights anymore.

Yeah the boos won't be that bad, but they could sound pretty significant depending on where the haters are situated. I'm actually expecting a fair amount of Lesnar cheers aswell though.

I think it's all dependent on the match. If it's great, then I think all the marks will be too focused on it, but any dead parts will probably get some Bryan chants.
