Said as much as he could without breaking kayfabe or getting himself in trouble.
By hell or high water he needs to be in that mania main event. Unlike mania 30 where he had to win, this time round he just needs to be in the match. Roman is the guy who beats Lesnar, I get that. But the dynamic or Bryan/Roman would add some much needed excitement to the match.
Bryan comes across as so genuine in these. He even worked in a couple of passive aggressive shot at Reigns. Too bad, he just couldnt say everything he feels without fear of repercussions.
WWE could bring back Muhammad Hassan and repackage Kofi Kingston with a Boko Haram gimmick and both would still get cheered over Roman. He's nothing but look and booking. Bottom of the roster in mic skills and ring skills. No one gives a shit about him if he isn't booked like a god. Even The Rock couldn't save him from the boos.
Gonna be hilarious to see Reigns booed out of the building and Lesnar getting a top-10 pop of all time at Wrestlemania.

Bryan may not have The Rock or was fed by WWE, but he has a fanbase that will support him no matter what. Even guys like Punk, Joe, Aries, Styles never had this. Bryan has people that will hijack for him. Why don't they hijack for Ziggler? Don't tell me hasn't been screwed more by booking than Bryan.
I love that we dismiss everything a wrestler says on screen as "written by the writers" until something they say hits a cord. Then "shit got real". My thoughts, it was a kayfab interview like every Raw interview. So why are we having a discussion like this was on a shoot podcast?
Isn't Bryan's current popularity down to HHH, Stephanie McMahon, Vince McMahon, CM Punk, Kane, Big Show, Batista and Orton putting him over in one of the biggest pushes of all time.
The Rock comes out to celebrate with his relation and to try and defuse the negative reaction created by the fan favourite not winning the match.
Personally I thought it was a stupid comment by Bryan.
Even though i like Reigns, i would much rather have Bryan in this spot vs Brock than Him.
