Lol. How little you actually remember.
Daniel Bryan is the exception to the rule. Look how well that turned out. There's no proof that it wasnt preplanned the entire time. Winning the rumble doesnt mean shit anymore. Just because a few fans booed Batista, who was a part timer who put over younger talent btw, doesnt mean the plan was for him to win and carry the belt into summerslam like the fraud Meltzer reported. How many shows did he show up to after WM30?
Reigns was never winning the title, the internet generation was fooled because of their whiny shit they pulled with DB and thinking itd work again. Seth was the real golden boy the whole time.
Sheamus is a heel currently, you're not supposed to like him.
Hhh is pushing Owens, his guy, no different then when they pushed Sheamus, only difference is you think you're not being told who to like.
Just enjoy what they tell you to enjoy, you're gonna watch anyway just like the rest of us.
honestly there's no point in speculating either way because when you consider the one possible source we have on this suspect, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks because there is no information for anyone to go on.
Daniel Bryan won MiTB because he happened to be in a city nearby doing a signing that week. I don't have the greatest faith in the long term planning of WWE management.
