But that would require all three members of the Shield to be out of the main title picture and we know WWE is physically incapable of that.
Nobody would boo him. Thats kind of the reason YES YES YES Daniel Bryan became a face in the first place
Bryan would have to find a fire that he never had as heel in WWE to pull it off.
Yeah, that's the thing too. I think you could turn Cena heel before you could Bryan.

Good read. Makes me regret passing up the opportunity to attend. Maybe next year.
Why am I not surprised Masada immediately threatened to smash the camera guy's face in? Dude seems to have a major chip on his shoulder.

Man I loved heel Bryan. Pre-Hell No at least since it's around then that the fans were really starting to love him regardless of what he did.

He still never had the quality you'd look for in a heel authority figure. He was more of a comic cowardly heel even then.

Sadly, I can see Bryan somehow convincing Triple H to let him have ONE. MORE. MATCH. against Miz at Wrestlemania. To reduce any sort of injury, it would probably be a squash where Bryan makes Miz tap in 3 seconds or something.
Sad thing is, Bryan could work a slower technical style that would reduce his chance of injury and give the fans one more match.

The Miz thing will probably end with Bryan not having a match against him but definitely either doing a Running Knee or a Yes Lock on him and that'll be it.

But he is a dumb and reckless one.
So what does everyone think of Gabe Sapolsky and WWN Live turning Evolve's Style Battle shows into a whole promotion?
They essentially announced that it will run in seasons of 9 shows with 8 heats leading to a finale where the 8 winners face off in a tournament.
I like taking this idea and turning it into a year long thing....thing is, he's got to find 64 wrestlers for this over a season if he's doing unique people across all eight tournaments. 64, that's a shit ton of wrestlers.

hopefully a bunch of interesting one shots you wouldn't get otherwise in the likes of EVOLVE? There's thousands of wrestlers out there.

True.
I just hope he doesn't load it where it's obvious who will win. Like booking seven outsiders and one Evolve guy each tournament or something. I feel like you can find enough guys to create intrigue on this with each night of the tournament.

Which is why, when he's not full time employed, he'll sign a Brock contract where they don't do medical testing and do a couple more fights.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Asuka is just female Brock. Nobody's going to buy her doing the job for basi ally anyone
Aren't all GOAT wrestler are and wwe Bryan isn't what I consider to be reckless.
Nah, she's female Nakamura. Having her in NXT breaks the system as just like Nakamura there is no one to believably defeat her.
Even with Nakamura, it took a huge effort from Joe to take him out.

Gabe's always had a good eye for talent and there's a lot of relatively unknown wrestlers out there who could easily do well in EVOLVE, so I'm looking forward to seeing who he lines up for this.
In Asuka's defense, part of the problem is that basically the entire NXT Women's Division got cleared out right before and after she became champ
Yep, she was left alone at the top of the mountain. That promo where she said no one was ready to face her, that was a shoot.
If Bayley, Sasha, Charlotte, and Becky were still down in NXT I could totally be able to stomach the idea of someone being able to beat Asuka. But, after taking the title off of Bayley, her next biggest threat was Nia fucking Jax.

Not The Rock!
With Nia Jax being gone, who is next in line? Strap a rocket to Ember Moon?

Yep. I don't think she'll win the first one though, I think they'll have Ember do the job and then actually get it at TakeOver: Orlando.
People aren't gonna buy her beating Asuka quite yet.

Hopefully that Women's Tournament is coming up soon and they use that to repopulate the roster.
Or do my idea:
Or do my idea:
sign em up hunter, make us a female gold medal winning Can-American Alpha
Honestly, at this point I think you just call up Asuka and have her relinquish the NXT title. Nobody is going to look credible beating her and having her drop the belt to someone clearly below her is only going to hurt Asuka's image. Call Asuka up. Hype her as the NXT Women's Champion who never lost her belt. Have the women's division basically shit their pants at the thought of Asuka coming to the main roster. Book her Goldberg style in a few squash matches. And then eventually have her lose a Womens Title match or something.
Damn right he isn't

If they don't fuck up Nikki Cross, they can have her win (with optional Sanity shenanigans too if you want), then build up Moon vs Cross with Asuka on main roster (wishful thinking).
I'd do with Asuka what you did with Paige. Have her win the main roster women's belt on her first night, whichever show she goes to. It would make sense with Asuka because you could say her dominance earned her a shot at the main roster title, but then winning that belt forces her to give up the NXT one.

Asuka gets brought up to Smackdown and beats Becky in the first Smackdown PPV after Mania for the title. Then Becky goes CM Punk vs Brock Lesnar Summerslam 2013 on her ass with having to resort to weapons and shit to get her down.
And she'll probably still lose.

Yes he is.
Damn right he isn't
Austin couldn't get the 3peat on The Rock at Wrestlemania, probably because he's a bitch.
In all seriousness, he really is. WWE was really fucking lucky to get two of the greatest wrestlers of all time at the same time. And, depending on where you rank Bret Hart, they had three of the all time best at once.
I really wish Bret stayed in WWE. The shit he could have done had the Austin feud continued would have been legendary. He probably would have done some great shit with The Rock. And if he would have stuck around long enough he would have probably made some magical matches with Kurt Angle too.
