And now it's time for Good idea, bad idea.
Good idea: Trying to backtrack and get Bryan more involved after botching his Rumble involvement.
Bad idea: Having Roman Reigns beat him in a singles match on PPV intending to get Roman over as a face.

Yes, quiet the 'marks' by having Roman Reigns defeat the guy the majority wanted to win the Royal Rumble.
For all the shit TNA gets, WWE is gaining ground on them when it comes to really f***ing stupid decisions.
If Roman is indeed in the main event at WM, I can safely say I will turn off the PPV when that match starts.

This is from the same guy who said:
- AJ Lee was pregnant - The Bellas would have a Hell in a Cell Match - Daniel Bryan isn't over, the YES chant is over
I'm gonna go ahead and take whatever he says with a pinch of salt.

People here were saying the same thing when Brie was getting entire arenas to chant "Yes!" with her during her feud with Stephanie.

Saying Daniel Bryan isn't over is wrong.

Whatever happened to that Dolphins guy? IIRC, people found out his was simply looking at late changes in the betting odds.

Lesnar vs a dead clown. BOOK IT! Better yet, Roman in Doink gear. Roman Reigns has to look funny.

If they can get Jericho to be Doink again, I would pay to see Lesnar v Doink

Am I the only one that thinks this line makes no sense? If the WWE doesn't care about the reaction he gets over the next few weeks, why are they bothering trying to quiet the "marks" while attempting to get Roman Reigns over? Maybe the idea is for Reigns to get the "smark rub" from Bryan. Have Bryan walk Reigns through an interesting enough match that the fans who don't like him begrudgingly give him a pass because he had a great match with their internet darling. Since they've commited themselves to using Reigns, no matter what (meaning no matter how the crowd reacts) they want to protect their "wrestlemania moment" when Reigns wins by giving Reigns some smark cred. Its backwards, throwback outdated logic, so it makes sense for WWE to do it. But that also ties into the same problem: Part of it is that Roman Reigns just can't win here either. The chance that Reigns gets the "smark rub" from Bryan and Bryan will "walk Reigns through an interesting enough match" denies the fact that Reigns, while in The Shield, was part of numerous great matches...including many against opponents like 2012-14 Kane and Big show, like the 2014 New Age Outlaws, like Ryback, like Erick Rowan, like 2014 Batista- people who no one will ever say were good enough to carry him- but if you listen to fans now, Roman Reigns is not only worse than Daniel Bryan, his best ever match made Raja Lion LOOK like Daniel Bryan. Fans have already decided they WANT Reigns to be terrible, so if he fights anyone and puts on a good match, everyone will say that the other person carried him.

True - but Reigns as a tag guy was great. He is not a great singles guy yet though and needs time to improve. This is like making Enzo Amore the main event at Mania. Great in tags and crazy potential but nothing near the final deal.

"Marks" are anybody who pays money for the product. If it was "smarks", that'd still be stupid but would at least make some kind of sense. Here, it's a blatant contradiction of itself.

Fans have already decided they WANT Reigns to be terrible, so if he fights anyone and puts on a good match, everyone will say that the other person carried him. Nah. Fans want him to be good. They loved him in those tag matches cause he crushed it every time. When he started getting big singles matches his weaknesses were readily apparent and in a high profile way. The idea that wwe thinks Bryan could show him how to have a solid singles isn't too crazy. Not just carry him through a match, but actually show him how to have a good main event singles match. That way he can do it with other guys later on. Its f***ing backwards "get a guy Vince likes, THEN teach him how to have great matches the fans will love" logic.
