He can make it to SummerSlam. Ric Flair was given a 2-month extension in 1989 by the NWA. Ronnie Garvin was also given one in 1987. Ultimate Warrior didn't defend the WWF Championship for most of September and October 1990. If these champions got a break, then Bryan deserves one too.

Did they have bosses who were out to get them?

Did they have bosses who were out to get them? I think subconsciously, every boss that Ronnie Garvin has worked for has been out to get him.

I don't even think the 30 day rule applies anymore, to be honest. I know Punk went well over a month without defending the title when he got injured, and I think AJ did too.
He'll be alright.

I wouldn't mind seeing Vacant get another run. They've earned it.

I really hope they don't end up stripping the title of him because "that's what Steph and Hunner's characters would do!", like that's the important thing here.

I think Steph and HHH need to have other foils who can constantly distract them from getting around to that. Like what the Shield is doing now.

And let's not forget Dean Ambrose's US title reign. Almost a year and maybe 6 defenses.

I wouldn't mind a planned title strip being foiled.

I don't see why he shouldn't be stripped of it. Even if he's out for only a month, give somebody else a win at Payback and maybe another couple of months with the championship and then Daniel Bryan comes back and wins back the championship.

The 'rule' is subject to their whims anyway, so they could just write around it easily. There doesn't have to be precedent cited and what have you, it's make believe.

Just have them stopped by Vince who declares that because of Hunter and Steph's actions they are no longer allowed to make decisions on RAW, they have to clear everything with the new GM of RAW, Daniel Bryan. Then come Summerslam it can all be forgotten as usual.

Evolution/Shield and Wyatt/Cena are solid enough feuds that they can do a PPV without the belt. Even then the Network means they aren't going to lose out on PPV buys without him. In the mean time they could always bring back King of the Ring, have the final match of that happen on PPV and that be a #1 contendership deal. If they were going to strip Bryan of the belts, I feel like they would have done it on-air, just to get more heat on Stephanie or Hunter.

I'm a huge supporter of DB but if he is to be off tv for a prolonged amount of time, the title needs to come off of him. I don't like the show without a champion, much like when Rock was champion this last time and only made an appearance here and there. I don't know how they are going to be able to write his character as champion for tv after telling the world he is having neck surgery. They can't build up the potential stripping of the championship, only for DB to be knocked out every week.....
