WWE Championship Match
Daniel Bryan defeats John Cena to win the WWE Championship
“Best Case Scenario: Triple H saves his inevitable chicanery for after Daniel Bryan goes over with a clean small package finish, which leads to Randy Orton cashing in the Money in the Bank contract on DB, turning heel and reforming Evolution with Triple H. Batista comes back because God Loves Me.”
Thank God for small favors. This was an absolute barnburner of a match, the best of Daniel Bryan’s WWE career (surprising, I know, as I’ve been told John Cena can’t wrestle) and exactly what you need from a “passing of the torch” match. The in-ring work was brilliant, the storytelling was off-the-charts and the CLEAN finish deserves a bonus itself, as not only does John Cena rarely loses, he NEVER loses completely clean in the middle of the ring. Except to the Rock. So, in one night, they basically made Daniel Bryan a love child of Bret Hart and The Rock.
There hasn’t been a non-hometown crowd want something more than LA wanted Wash.-native Daniel Bryan to win that title since Jeff Hardy won his first WWE Title at Armageddon all those years/drug arrests ago. This the stuff dreams are made of, from both a wrestling fan and wrestling booker point-of-view. The only way you could make a babyface hotter would be, I don’t know, taking the belt away from him through nefarious but total legal in-ring means.
Oh wait:
