So what's going on with Daniel Bryan (really?)

**Reichwulf** · 09-02-2011, 08:53 PM

Alright so i was extremely overjoyed when he won MITB for smackdown as he is in my "top 5" of current great talent in the wwe. Also i was glad they were starting to build up on him more, but after money in the bank, it seems the creative team not only dropped the ball on him. It seems to me they sort of have it out for him. Don't get me wrong most of his recent matches have been pretty good, but they continually make him lose again and again.

It's pretty depressing, i mean the image they are giving the future "wrestle mania event-er" isn't following suit with that.

Thoughts? As i am pretty curious about this, and it's been on my mind.

I am kinda hoping that they are using this feud to build up both Bryan and Barrett into main eventers. Fingers crossed anyway

I don't understand why Bryan had to take a clean loss to get that story over. It didn't really make sense. But if they're serious about challenging for the World Title at Wrestlemania, there's still plenty of time to give him some credible wins. He's definitely getting over with the crowds so I'm not too concerned at the moment.

I agree, he has plenty of time to get credible wins under his belt before then, it's just the whole feeling i get when i see him in a match.

(for example the MITB matches against del rio)
Wade Barrett & even the Sin Cara one just made him seem pretty weak in my view with the lost.

Especially with the built up he got before hand.

they could a story line where he goes on a losing streak and then he finally wins when he cashes in at WM but thats a long way from now but cole pointed out he is on a losing streak so its possible

How have they dropped the ball with him last i knew he was in a feud with wade barret (but i havent watch smackdown in a couple weeks so i could be wrong)

The Miz was losing matches and the tagteam titles when he was being built up to win and cash in MITB, so I don't see it as a major problem for Bryan right now. But its sad to see him lose week in and week out.

While I certainly agree with what you're saying, the key difference between the two is Miz had the mic skills to make up for whatever loses he racked. Can't necessarily say the same for Bryan. He has it in him, he just needs to learn how to break out of his shell and let loose.

Maybe I'm just hopelessly optimistic, but I think Daniel Bryan will go on a losing streak, then finally snap, showing a more vicious side.

A snapping would be pretty neat, but i just, don't see Byran as a snapping kind of guy, hes just a great technical wrestler, it's the promos that get him, but he is getting better at that.
