Why not have a bromance triangle between John Cena, CM Punk, and Alex Riley.
Alex Riley and John Cena appear in a few segments together. Punk is angered further when Riley allows Cena to borrow fifty bucks, and feels that he as the WWE Champion is being disrespected, and that Cena is yet again stealing the spotlight, his place in A-Ry's heart.
At some point Cena & Punk get into a pull apart brawl. Midcard Nexus runs out to break up the fight, except Clay who gets chop blocked by a waiting Damien Sandow who was hiding in the shadows. In the midst of the scuffle Punk throws a wild roundhouse kick, Cena ducks and Riley eats it. Riley is carted out with signs of a "concussion". Punk feels guilty for hurting him, while Cena yells at Punk and calls him reckless and a bastard.
Because Riley's favorite movie is Major League and he owns a Ricky Vaughn jersey, he attracts the ire of Daniel Bryan. Riley refuses to stay away from the arena despite being injured, and Bryan kills Riley weekly with additional roundhouse kicks to the head, further aggravating his head injury.
Eventually Zack Ryder grows jealous of Cena's growing concern for Riley, and The Miz tries to use Riley's "head injury" to try to brainwash him into rejoining him in order to help him continue holding onto the IC Title. The bromance triangle effectively becomes a bromance pentagon culminating in Alex Riley vs. The Miz at TLC and Riley becoming the new Intercontinental Champion. Miz turns face by congratulating Riley. Riley realizes his bromantic feelings for Miz and breaks up with Cena amicably, who then rebounds by going back to Ryder.

Yes. The WWE is sorely missing in the bro category lately, with Ryder and Cena barely getting any screentime together. I'd pay a huge amount of money for the angle you just proposed. Bro moments in wrestling are the best bro moments.
Also Midcard Nexus could then be renamed "The Good, the Bad and the Bro."

Titus O'Neil and Darren Young could be an awesome bromance if they played it up a bit more.
Camacho & Hunico, they looked like total bros at the great american bash
Johnny Curtis & Derrick Bateman, you all know why.
Mark Henry & David Otunga had awesome chemistry. They both reminded me of Deebo and Sticky Fingaz in Next Friday. How they always stick together but Deebo always kinda bullies Sticky.

Bromance? Like...like The Usos? That's treading on uncharted ground for WWE (and most forms of entertainment, for that matter).

I miss bromances. Hunico and Camacho are probably the only ones I really, really like lately. Primetime players had promise, but AW kinda ruined it a bit. The Superstars where Titus combed Darren's hair amused me, it's not as fun when AW does it though. Bromance? Like...like The Usos? That's treading on uncharted ground for WWE (and most forms of entertainment, for that matter). Bromance definition: a close nonsexual friendship between men

I don't think Cena/Riley would work because they don't get along.

Even some one-off bromance would work. Like show Cena and Ryder backstage when the Scrubs people are hosting then have Cena and Ryder start singing Guy Love. NEW BOOM PERIOD.

Well, WWE HAD the Rad Bromance, but they got rid of that. The closest they've got right now is Hunico and Camacho, I think.

Daniel Bryan and Bateman had potential. I'd like one that survives heel and face turns

Y'know, Cena could easily counter Punk's "I don't get enough screentime" argument by rightly pointing out how Ryder is in a far worse position. When AJ agrees and showcases Ryder more, Punk could take his anger out on Ryder, with Cena running to his defense. And just like that, the OTP returns with everybody looking strong.

Can we just have Slabriel back? I wanted Slabriel back mainly because Heel Justin Gabriel is That Dude. At RAW 1000 they should've just had Gabriel come out after the legends demolished Slater, he grabs a mic and says, "*sigh* The things I do for love", and then he peels Slater off the mat and helps him backstage.

I'd prefer it with lower card guys in a tag team, that they start to subtly show that they're in love with each other. Swagger and McIntyre would be good candidates.
Wait, bromances are nonsexual? NO BUYS!
