Umm...WWE didn't push him down every one's throats. They weren't even trying to push him to the main event of mania. Blame the people for interrupting every promo with yes! chants and CM Punk for leaving and opening up a spot for him.
There was no shoving at all, just giving in to fan demand. |

Yeah, they did everything to derail his steam, and even used it to elevate Wyatt. But the fans were unrelenting I think fan makes plenty of decent points. I don't believe putting him in a program with Kane was a way to bury him. Yes, they had a poorly executed angle, but I don't think it was intentional.

Yeah, I don't think there was an intentional plot to bury him. With evolution caught up with the Shield, Wyatt still feuding with Cena, and Lesnar leaving, it was really the only good option.
Still booked like shit though. Could've been much better. |

I guess I'm in the vast minority when I say I never liked Daniel Bryan. He just doesn't do it for me. He just doesn't scream main event at all imo. No prob with him in the upper midcard and holding the lesser titles, but he doesn't fit in with the main event and the heavyweight title. To add some perspective, I felt the exact same way about Rey Mysterio when he was put in the main event scene years ago. Rey and Bryan are great midcarders, but to have them booked as consistently credible threats to the big boys just weakens their opponents I guess.
Also I find the YES! chants to be vastly more annoying than the WHAT!? chants. Like I seriously want to change the channel when the YES! chants break out. |

Different strokes man.
It helps that Bryan hits a lot harder and has more impact to his moves than Mysterio. That said he's not overpowering Batista or anything. I think what it comes down to is people like me, who can believe Bryan in the main event on account of his technical and striking abilities, and people like you and fan who can't buy him being in that spot based on that alone. It's just different outlooks on the business, and I don't think it's worth discussing further, because at this point no one is changing their mind, and everyone has said everything there is to be said about. |

I could see Batista coming back as a face wanting his 1on 1 match for the title after winng the rumble last year. After his movie he should get a huge pop when he returns. They have already laid the ground lines with him quiting I see vince signing him and possibly making a tv return.

I'd be for that. Batista is one of the few guys that from a physical standpoint, can challenge brock, and he's got the star power for it.
Batista's matches have improved to the point that I don't think it would be the horrible match some people think it would. Let Patterson put it together just to be sure. I think the build up has a lot of potential to be great though. |
