Think about it.
Royal Rumble, Sheamus wins and then goes on to beat Bryan for the WHC at Mania because they want him to be Smackdowns Cena.
Suddenly, Bryan becomes over like rover and WWE realizes they accidentally created a new huge star (inb4 "only smarks were cheering him/he's just a fad").
Rematch between Sheamus and Bryan at Extreme Rules to determine who's more over and therefore more deserving of the strap. It turns out roughly 50/50 that night.
They want to strike whilst the iron is hot with Bryan but at the same time don't want to screw over Sheamus. Solution? Both champs!
Now if only they could have done this with Orton/Christian last year.

I have it on good authority that Daniel Bryan may or may not win against CM Punk.

To say I wouldnt mind it would be an understatement, iv loved Punk reign but this may be the perfect time to strike. Especially if it makes DB a full time main eventer for good

Nah, I think Brock's taking the belt away from him. Last night was the first time Punk mentioned Brock and it wasn't in a positive light also Cena/Laurinaitis is built up as being more important than Punk/Bryan. Cena/laurinaitis even has a commercial for the ppv its the only match so far that has one.

As of this writing WWE officials have Daniel Bryan slated to win the championship at Over the Limit. Though plans are constantly changing as seen at Wrestlemania when he was also slated to retain the championship, nothing is set in stone.

I want to say it's just a filler PPV match like Punk's feud with Ziggler, though it should be a hell of a match at least.

I'm thinking he'll win it, but probably won't have it for long. They need to be going for Laurinaitis actually being able to accomplish something with his power, which thus far he really hasn't done.

They just had Bryan lose to Sheamus.... With one arm.... and interference from Del Rio.... He won't be beating Punk.

Things change. He also got re-established beforehand by beating Rey Mysterio twice (out of three but still), then pinning Rey AGAIN in a triple threat match with ADR. They haven't established Bryan in the same manner at all. He beat Kofi before Extreme Rules and Jerry Lawler last week, but that's hardly noteworthy.

Nah, filler feud before Christian comes back to feud with up to SummerSlam and then they'll have Punk drop the belt to Lesnar.

I'm thinking Punk retains and then goes against Tensai over the summer.

I really hope you are right. Punk’s title run has been boring expect for a few matches. If Bryan wins the title, I would be very happy and start to care about the title again. Bryan is now the top heel in the WWE since Brock Lesnar "quit" and Jericho’s return was lackluster. Take the title off the number two face and put it on the number one heel. Jericho should win the other belt and then Punk should win it so Punk fans would be happy that he has a belt.

A small thing I noticed that makes me think otherwise. Now, I may be nitpicking, but Punk was in the Yes! lock for a bit on monday, and he didn't tap. I'm 50/50 on this line of thinking because well, I've seen other guys put in submissions after a match, or in an interview segment, or whatever other non-match environment you can think of, and they've tapped. Oversight? Maybe. Perhaps they don't want their biggest star/champ to tap.
I just don't know.
Maybe it's setting up something in the summer for Jericho/Punk/Bryan

as much as I would love to see Bryan take the title and set up a long fued with punk, I think Punk will win and move on.
This fued has had no build what so ever. They didnt even mention punk vs bryan until 4 minutes left of raw
