The difference in response in this Bryan angle is between people who like it because it gets
"their guy" over, who deserves it for working hard, being a great worker, having a great ROH run, etc. They're ok with it because it's pushing and getting over the right guy.
Then there are the people who don't like it because though they agree D bry is "the right guy", it's dumbing down his character to any other hillbilly wretling face. What separates him and these segments from something Billy Gunn or some goofball couldn't pull off the same? Nothing. If this shyt goes on his whole main event run people will turn on him, regardless of being a great worker.
