Even if they rigged the system entirely so that he never tested positive for years, I just don't think they'd want a potential PR nightmare.

If Jeff was to actually get caught by law enforcement again under WWE contract that would NOT go over well at all.

Yeah, and that's fine, I guess, but it's a little beneath him, isn't it? We're really gonna go from "he absolutely squashes everyone he sees" to "has to be in a competitive matchup against Primo and Epico"?

I guess. I just mean long-term. Like, there's NOTHING for him in an ME scene that's already way overcrowded with faces, and in the mid-card, you're going to have a tough time finding credible competition for him. I guess he could work a program with Dolph and that would be credible.

If Dragon is face, Sheamus is heel, so it evens out number wise.

it's incredibly sad that we can't say 'well okay he can work something with swagger and look legit'

and it's entirely due to booking. swagger would have won the hiac santino match had vickie not interfered. there's a lot of 'he would have won but for...' situations with him to the point where 'he should win but he somehow chokes and loses a lot.'

sheamus is face.
del rio is heel.
dragon is ???

if ace is gonna support del rio again (should) and be against sheamus (should), then dragon's kinda left in no man's land. ....thing is, he's too hot to be ignored and that's his scene right now, rematch clause and all. they could, and probably should, simply book him with no explicit alignment. just have him win matches against heels, faces, whatever. he can be his own tweener mode until they find a proper feud, similar to how they dealt with punk.

WWE says he's face therefore he is face. This isn't TNA where they will allow the fans to just change someone's alignment overnight. They have to wait long enough so that they can act like it was their idea all along and NOT like they're letting the inmates run the asylum here.

That's what I mean by meta-heel. WWE keeps saying he's face even though the crowd says "Bulls***! He's a heel! Boooo!"

It's like Cena.

Well, I also don't think DB is having any more than one match against him, so I don't expect the crowd will hold it against him at all. You really think the marks are going to side with ADR against Sheamus just because of what happened at WM? I wouldn't count on that.

We don't even KNOW yet whether YES and DANIEL BRYAN will carry over to a mark-rich environment AT ALL. It's way too early to be calling stuff like this.

No. Hell, the Miami crowd was booing ADR just as loud when he announced he was Sheamus's next opponent. People see that as Daniel Bryan's spot.

Of course we don't know, but I mean it made its way all the way to a professional basketball game. I don't think it's outrageous to think it can cross over to mark-rich environments.

I think we as fans need to stop taking Daniel Bryan for granted.

When things are status quo for him in WWE, he doesn't get tons of support or anything, we just kind of accept that he's a midcarder.

But whenever WWE "wrongs" him like the tie incident or Wrestlemania, it's like the entire smark fanbase FLIPS THE F*** OUT and decides to override WWE shows with chants for him.

Where's this energy during the more normal days fans!?

Let alone for the part of that era when the chant started catching on. But they still participate because it's an incredibly fun, incredibly easy to understand concept.

"YES!" is pretty much the same. No matter how they felt about Bryan before, they see how much fun it is to chant "YES!" with everybody, and they want to be a part of that. I know my cousin, who's way more mark than smark, hated Daniel Bryan before, but loves him since "YES!" became a thing.

Yeah, point in case here when Anderson fought Hardy I wasnt sure what alignment he was but i was LEANING heel,

Then he comes out with all the faces in the Hogan segment. All because the Impact Zone kept changing their damn minds about him.
