Zero. I think they might tease it if they don't tease pulling him out entirely, but Bryan will come in late because once he shows up the crowd's not going to be backing anybody else, once he's gone the crowd will turn on the match, and he's probably not in a state to work for an hour yet.

If he goes to the performance center and shows them he can still go 100% then sure if not let him come in at like 18. 18..... 18 SECONDS.

If he does then he damn sure isn't winning.
It's almost a gimmick to have Bryan screwed through nefarious means these days. If he went in at 1 then he'll probably be eliminated by Sheamus of all people who returns as a heel (which I'm 99.9% will happen regardless of position).

Man, I feel so torn on that Sheamus / Bryan thing they're so hung up on. Yeah, Sheamus needs to turn heel and their matches together are great, plus I sympathize with them wanting to do it so badly and Sheamus seeming to see it as a major regret he's never gotten to have a proper Mania match with Bryan but... Man, I just do not want to see it and see rubbing elbows with Sheamus as being a firm demotion for Bryan.

The only way I'll approve of it is if Bryan's WWE Champion and his first opponent is a newly heel Authority Sheamus who's the new heavy. Without that I don't want to see it at all as it would be a demotion for Bryan.

Yeah, definitely this. Not to mention Bryan hasn't competed for several months. It would seem ill-advised to throw him into a match for an hour for his return. Wise to play it safe, I think.

Sheamus can win a battle royale since Brock's out and then say he and Bryan will have a great match. They have a match and then Bryan wins. Sheamus gives Bryan props but as soon as Bryan turns around, Sheamus attacks him going heel. Sheamus then holds up the belt as a major heel. Simple story. Works out.

It's the rumble, this isn't like working a "real" 1 hour match.
I think when Rey won, he spent about 50 minutes laying in the corner.

I think it's more likely they'll spend the go home show beating Bryan up so they can tease him being too injured to compete.

I think they'll keep him till no 30 just to ratchet up the tension, that or have him come in at 1 and the do a stretcher job early on (so not officially 'out') only for him to come back out toward the end to win it.

If he's number 1, it's because they plan on eliminating him early in order to set up things later (Reigns victory).

I really hope this doesnt happen, I want to hear the huge pop for him coming out randomly that we were robbed of last year instead of everyone knowing he's coming out first and that whole played out thing.

Assuming the Authority uses logic...they should have Bryan at #1 or #2. Then they should have Big Show, Kane, Rollins, Mercury and Noble be the next competitors. 5 on 1 eliminate Bryan easily. Then they eliminate every other opponent that comes in afterwards. #30 is HHH. Everyone eliminate themselves when he steps in the ring.
Most boring/logical Rumble ever.

That'd still be better than that New Nexus bit in the 2011 one.
