After all the top stars are booked, now they ask who Bryan fans want him to face.

Out of the options, Rusev by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar.

BRYAN VS RUSEV would be one hell of a match, Rusev is really improving a lot. (Sheamus returns as a heel and beats up Cena, Cena-Sheamus)


Anyway, Bryan should face a top star and not a jobber like Dolph Ziggler.

Give him Dean Ambrose, at least he's been somewhat protected.

Rusev vs. The American Dragon.

Rusev would be good, but he is occupied with Cena.
Not quite yet. Last angle they booked on Raw didn't commit him to a match with Cena, no matter how much it seemed to foreshadow it. If they decided to pull a last minute switch-off, they could easily transition into it right now.

The more I think about it, the more Bryan/Rusev sounds like the best direction for everyone involved.

Just put him in the ic title match and have him win or get close he is not main event material at this point anymore anyways, he was LAST YEAR but this Bryan has regressed, and now he is TRULY overated, he was at his best during his 2011-2012 title run and afterwards until he turned face.

Are you fucking kidding me? IMO Bryan is now better than ever.

Last year, his character was all about the YES chant and his mic skills were bad.

Now he's improved a LOT on the mic and delivering good promos pretty much every week. He carried Roman Reigns in his last PPV match to a Fucking 4.5 Star Match. What more do you fucking want?

Bryan right now is better than he ever was in his career.

Bryan/Rusev and Sheamus/Cena but WWE doesn't give a shit about Bryan, certainly isn't going to give him a higher profile match than Cena.

They could've fixed the Bryan situation 1000 times, had 1000 chance to give Bryan something meaningful for WM but they didn't because they don't give a flying shit about him or his fans.

Well it is of course unlikely, out of all of the options listed I would love to see Bryan/Rusev or Bryan/Ambrose

Despite his atrocious booking Ambrose is still way over. The last thing he needs if a program against abother top face. Keep Bryan and Ambrose apart for now.

This whole choose his opponent stinks of a major troll by Vince haha.

Their is literally no one left on the roster worth Bryans time after Lesnar and Rusev.

My pick would be Rollins though just because of the match quality.

If Cena wants Rusev @ Mania he will get Rusev @ Mania. And if Vince wants Cena to be the American Hero @ Mania (which he planned since last fall) you better believe its happening. Gimmick for the United States Championship.

Right now Bryan is in pick your poison land with Sheamus, Ziggler, or The Ladder match. He probably better off staying @ home, like Sheamus, who is better off for a Post-Mania Return

Wrestlemania Play feat.

Roman Reigns vs. BROCK Lesnar
Sting vs. HHH
John Cena vs. Rusev

...and the match you've waited a lifetime to see

Daniel Bryan vs. Somebody Else

Sending them chills down ma spine just thinking about it :lol fpalm

But more seriously (read: sadly) this is what actually had me mad about this whole thing - OK, Bryan didn't win the Rumble. OK, Bryan won't go on to face Brock at WM. Butt-fucking really has NO WM opponent or feud in the works?! For this whole time?!? Angle, HBK, Zayn, somebody to make it feel like Wrestlemania.

Bryan should just feign an injury and do something fun on WrestleMania weekend instead. Like, go hiking, fishing, I don't know. Anything's better than going to Wrestlemania and put over some less-talented guy again while one of the worst wrestlers and talkers in the company gets the biggest rub in history, in a dream match Bryan himself should be in. It'll only be worse since it's in the Bay Area and they love Bryan even more than most areas do. They'll be chanting his name there.

If he's not wrestling The Rock or Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, I'm not terribly interested in seeing many more Bryan matches there. Beyond that, only feuds with Samoa Joe, Kevin Owens, Finn Balor, Hideo Itami, Luke Harper, and Cesaro could hold my interest with him at this point, though I doubt WWE will book any of those guys well enough to be viable opponents for him.

He's a big star, there's nothing left to prove or achieve beyond dream matches. If the WWE won't give him those and he's financially secure, I'd consider retirement. Let them run themselves into the ground with Reigns. Bryan deserves better than being an emergency bandaid to cover their ass whenever they make a stupid decision or want to try and get a guy who can't get over very well over.
