It's easy to just show up for Wrestlemania and call yourself a draw.
That's cool..it was easy to be for years and phone it in at previous Sms as buyrates went down until mainstream returns put the company and the Network over the hump. Taker vs Miuchaels wasn't cutting it. Neither was Punk vs Orton. That all was nothing.

And Bryan was held down more and still overcame and won the belt on the big stage. They didn't do that for Punk during Once In A Lifetime and that's why he's a disgruntled footnote these days.

Talked all that talk but when he saw something in it for him he gladly laid down for Triple H and curtain jerked PPV after PPV as champion. It was only when the gravy train ran short that he all of a sudden had morals and wanted to be indignant about things again.

Great analogy, cause the monents these days come few & far between or are made for all the wrong reasons(Royal Rumble)

shyt - to me, he's the guy they were missing when they were trying to get Roman over for this singles run. :yeshrug:

I don't know if there's anyone else on the main roster who could have talked his way into being the heel in that feud when the crowd is dying to boo Reigns.

The :angry: promos based on the fact that yet another person was getting the big push over him would have been :ohlawd:

It was because of Punk they put D Bryan in that spot...

Most of the reason he got heat is because Punk shytted on his push on the podcast. Then everyone paid attention when Bryan was tossed ultra early in the 2015 Rumble.

I have faith he's good enough at playing a bad guy that he could have worked with it for a focused one on one feud:yeshrug:And if he doesn't leave, then he doesn't do the podcast.


If Vince had stopped to think about it, he could have had that 'loud mouth blue collar dude' vs. 'The half Samoan blue chipper' dynamic that he loves so much.:ehh:

I look at it this way - people will always react to Batman (Roman) giving a monster like Killer Croc (Brock) or Solomon Grundy (Braun) the hands, but they lose their shyt for him facing off against the Joker, because they have that history and depth to their interactions. Punk is the only person I can imagine playing his Joker.

Like I said..that's all hypothetical. Bryan was who the fans rode with..Cripple H just didn't have a match.

Punk is the reason Bryan even existed in wwe anyone dumb enough to disagree just a goofy

No promo of the past ten years can rival that one nor can anyone stack a resume plus length of run in wwe to punks dude was the best and arguably the top three of his generation with cena and styles up there
