DANIEL BRYAN THOUGHTS

Daniel Bryan has had the midas touch as of late.  He's on the CWC and it's been great.  He's on Smackdown and it's been way better.  He's on Talking Smack and from nothing that show has become must watch.  I hate the interviews the WWE does on ESPN, but of course DB talks about how he wants to come back on there and makes it must watch.

Right now Bryan is total gold for WWE as a non-performer in the ring.  As the teases continue to come from him about a return you have to wonder the impact he could have leaving WWE and going somewhere else.  I don't see WWE pulling the trigger unless they realize at the end of his contract he's going to go somewhere so they might as well pony up.  I just wonder if he will stay loyal to them if that is the case.

People have been talking about what to do with HHH now that he has returned.  I think it's pretty easy.  Rather than just force feed him down our throats the WWE needs to take the time and apply logic to his recent actions and then use him to catapult Owens.  First I would have him rip Reigns for beating him at WM32 and hitting Steph with that Spear.  Then he should run down Rollins for being a whiny baby that never truly lived up to the Authorities standards.

HHH should also claim the Authority is dead and move on from that angle.  He should get in a heated exchange with Seth Rollins that turns him face.  He explains his reason for backing Owens is that he saw in Owens someone that followed the same path as him.  He turned on his friend Zayn and battled for a spot when he wasn't considered to be the top guy.  Owens has followed HHH's road map and HHH rewarded him for it.

If you tie in the history and use logic people will accept the angle.  Owens and HHH need to be heels and they need to dominate heels.  Owens should probably get a bunny in his first defense and take out Big Cass, which will send Cass back to the Tags, which is totally fine.  Then he should feud with Jericho in a jealousy angle.  At Survivor Series the quality needs to go up.  I like him in a three way against Reigns and Rollins, but I haven't totally decided yet.

Roman is in a tricky spot now.  HHH cannot get Roman over as a face and nor can Owens.  They are too easy to root for as heels.  Roman had been doing better against Rusev, but they moved away from that.  Rusev is also off TV for a week or two.

The heel turn is still best, but now it's a challenge.  Owens is a top heel, how can HHH turn face after helping him?  Roman is going to be against them so it's hard to see those two ending up as the faces.  I think WWE has no intent of turning Roman at this time, so that's why the logic is hard.  I think he can't turn right now.  The bloom might be off the Rose by the time he ever does.

Speaking of heel turns AJ Styles has been amazing as of late.  I've talked about it before.  Just imagine if Roman had turned a year ago after the WM31 debacle.  If executed correctly he could be the true top draw in the company.  AJ is proving that a heel turn works, and when he does flip back to a face it will be easy.  Poor Roman is just making others unpopular like the USO's.
