In a show Edge got a bigger pop and bigger reactions and in an angle that made no sense for him to involved in and Danielson himself didn't want to participate (but did it anyways because Vince wanted him in that spot)
Please tell what interesting thing did WWE book him in after losing the belt to Kofi. What character work did he do in those two years? What "special treatment" did he get in his last stint that he hasn't gotten in AEW? It's basically the same shyt:
let him wrestle who he wants, let him do what he wants and put over whoever he wants.
