Bryan could have come off better than he has with this story. Sure, he's the main event and is the most over guy in the company by a mile, but to be honest he was already that before this story (maybe not the ME). The being screwed story has gotten stale, so what could they do to make it more interesting?

For example: A backstage segment where he trashes HHH's office after being screwed which further paints him as the anti-authority figure this storyline so desperately needs. Perhaps cutting more mature jokes/insults in his head-to-heads with HHH? I think it just needs more attitude.

Your post is what backwards. Getting over Bryan is not the end game, he's already over, molding him into a top star is the end game. Beating a babyface Cena gave bryan main event credibility, but he is not a top act yet. For that he needs a heel with starpower and credibility, Triple H ofcourse offers that and plenty more in that role.

don't intentionally write promos for him where he buries himself or draw attention to his short comings. He did a promo where he himself referred to himself as small and weak. if daniel bryan cannot believe in himself and his own skills then why should we?

he was a world champion, he ended the shield's unbeaten streak, he beat sheamus, he two guys in one night, he beat orton in the summer and cena for the belt....so he has done all this but he is still weak?

promos like that need to be stopped

I had this idea to elevate Bryan to super main event status. These events need to happen.

- Screwed out of the WWE championship at some point and Triple H say he'll never get another title shot.

- Wins the Royal Rumble

- The Undertaker turns heel (possibly as part of the Kane/Wyatt angle)

- Triple H recruits Undertaker (possibly in some weird Wyatt ritual)

- Undertaker wins WWE Championship with the help of Triple H's stipulations (buried alive match?) and becomes Bryan's WM30 opponent

- Bryan breaks The Undertaker's streak and wins the WWE championship


This scenario has star power written all over it because it will be so hard to predict which way WWE would go. What is more sacred, the streak or Bryan's rise. IWC would go nuts because they would think Bryan is being buried, then his win would be so much more special.

However I don't think they should break the streak, but if they did, Bryan should do it and for the WWE title.

Daniel Bryan is getting less and less popular. I liked him on the Road To Summerslam, not a fan but seeing him on the screen diddn't bothered me. But now, since Summerslam, I want him to go back in the midcard because he is the new Cena. He was the only guy that could beat The Shield. There was one guy, Bryan and then, all the others could fuck themselves. The booking of Bryan is bad because instead of letting him stay the champion fighting against the Authority, being the underdog. They booked him as the new Cena, the strongest man in the building and that doesn't work with him

That's how he was booked going into MITB and Summer Slam. Went over Sheamus, Kane, Shield, Swagger, Cesaro, Orton, Wade, and some others. He's doing some smiley stuff, that's bothering some, but it's not as bad as Sheamus was at least. Sheamus was kicking out a 1, and going over Goldberg style.

The Storyline currently is helping in getting over under card acts but the ultimate showdown and payoff is between hunter and Bryan without a doubt. You folks have to wait for it, Bryan will be the hottest star heading into wreslemania even above part timer stars, if they stick to their plans.

Triple H jobbed to Curtis Axel recently! I'm sure he won't mind putting over Daniel Bryan in the biggest WWE storyline in years. He's the heel and in the end the heel must lose. He'll endure and be back bigger and badder than ever don't worry.

Here's an ide...oh wait he's already a star.



Maybe if you could use some logic, that would help lower the amount of "moron" comments you have directed at your posts.

LOL at people that think HHH will lay down for Bryan. :lmao
You are aware that HHH is high on Bryan right now right?

I think he should bring back his weak link character. Bryan would lose unfairly and be screwed all the time but blame it all on himself and question his ability, leading into him trying harder and harder every time. It would make it easier for the audience to sympathize hime if he acted more insecurely and still tried to prove to everyone that he isn't weak. This could also bring back the comedy aspect, which is one of Bryan's definite strengths.

Or he could just utilize his former heel gimmick, which is in my opinion Bryan's absolute peak thus far. He could come up with more catchphrases the likes of "once you go Bryan, there's no point in tryan'" and "Beatiful Bryan".

He's a star, but not a "star". IE on(or near) the level of a Cena or even Batista.

He has to stop doing that stupid yes crap while jumping up and down like a whiny child.

Bryan will never really be the number one face until Cena turns heel. If Daniel proves himself to be a reliable, money making face between now and maybe the Royal Rumble, thenI think that WWE would be confident enough to turn Cena heel, and do a Championship for Championship match at Wrestlemania where Bryan goes over a heel John Cena.

Note that I said Championship for Championship not a unification match.

So putting Bryan over the Corporation/Orton, then HHH, then a heel Cena in a new story. If this doesn't work, Bryan was not meant to be the top star and WWE might've fucked up Cena's star power and fan base. Moderate or high risk involved, I think.

If he would have been a big star material he would have been a Big star by now. He got one of the biggest pushes a guy had after lesnar and hes still not there.People here are blaming poor story line which by the way every1 was telling how great it was 4 week ago.If you have it in you it doesnt matter what stupid story line you are in people would watch.If you aint hot then ratings drop thats what happened.
Punk and bryan just cant reach that point. They had their chances they didnt do well.
Last superstars who were over as fck is john cena, batista and jeff hardy.
Punk and bryan is not even on the batista's level.

Do exactly what they're doing with him .. I mean I find the Yes shit & smiley go happy shit really annoying but it seems like they're trying to cater Bryan toward Cena's fan base. So even though I find it corny as all hell, the fans have never gave him so much love. If he performed the way I would like him too, the average WWE fan probably would find him a boring & dull submission specialist.

The current storyline that he's in one of the best he'd ever wish to be in. It could elevate him to that star status you're referring to, OP, if done correctly. I'd have the feud culminate with him going over HHH at Mania. Would do wonders for him.

IMO what the ongoing story lacks is depth. There's no depth whatsover. Just repeating things over and over again. They need new ideas to keep people interested. This Brie Bella thing sucks for me personally.
