Do you think Daniel Bryan will ever main event a WrestleMania?

One wasn't even *that* charismatic. He just got over in time with ring ability and giving sunglasses away to the kids.

I would love to see him get a push worthy enough warrant a Wrestlemania match as much as the next guy, but... as much as i hate to say, he'll likely get the Lance Storm treatment: being bumped from Wrestlemania to a Heat dark match much to the outrage of the IWC. And having it happen more than once.

I still don't habeeb it that he was legit fired. I think he was "fired" to let that heat blow over in light of Linda's campaign, among other things. The spit to Cena and the Tie-angle choke were two of the best spots of the evening Nexus debuted as a unit. Consider that anymore, talent can't really do anything without prior approval, and that if they originally thought those two spots were going to be a problem, they would have been edited out before the show nationally aired. Also, think of how he just glossed over what happened, all "forget about that, I'm here to spotlight indy wrestling...", and the fact that he was right back after his supposed non-compete clause ran out. I think there was a handshake deal where he was let go, but if he didn't do anything disparaging to WWE or otherwise fuck up personally, he had his job waiting for him. Just a case of outta sight, outta mind.
