A fair question that hopefully leads to some interesting discussions. While Randy's cash-in and possible heel turn loom over this Sunday, assuming Bryan does manage to get the belt and doesn't lose it immediately or at the following RAW, how long do you think he should be the Champion?
Personally, I'd like to see him have it at least until December. They can have Orton vs. Bryan feud for the next few months, but then have Orton finally get the belt thanks to shenanigans with Vince. Have Cena face Orton and get the belt back at Royal Rumble, while Daniel wins the event. Meanwhile CM Punk, staying as a tweener, cuts some promos about how he wants another shot at the belt having dealt with Heyman and Lesnar. Punk goes into Elimination Chamber, the last one against Cena. Here, he gets beat by Cena, but it's very close so he's given a shot on RAW with a special match by Maddox. Bryan having won the Rumble goes against Cena, but in a Triple Threat match with Punk at Mania. Here, Bryan wins the belt again and the crowd goes absolutely nuts.
How about you?

I'd love to see him hold it until WrestleMania and defend against Punk.

The last time he walked into WrestleMania with a title, he lost it in eighteen seconds.
EIGHTEEN. FREAKIN'. SECONDS.
I can only hope that this doesn't happen again.

If they are serious about building him to Cena's level he has to hold for a while. If they instead want to continue with the McMahon family nonsense then he gets anywhere from 1-3 months.
If Orton challenges him to a wood chopping contest for the belt he doesn't stand a chance.

We had a fantasy booking thread around here a few days ago and in it I had Bryan hold the belt until the RAW after TLC when he lost the belt to a heel Orton who cashed in. Orton's violence pre, during and post-match injured Bryan. He made a triumphant return to win the Royal Rumble and beat Orton to regain the WWE Championship at 'Mania XXX.
So yeah, that's how I'd book him from hereon out.

There's no reason to still be upset about 18 seconds - unless you paid to see that match and ended up, you know, not seeing it. Then by all means complain away. But as far as character development goes, we really can't complain, because intentionally or not it essentially became this:  |

Seriously, though, I think the rest of the year would be good.

In the fantasy booking thread, I had him lose in a chamber match in February that to Cena, in a match that included Punk and Lesnar.
And that was just so Cena would have the belt against Taker. I'd put him right back in the title hunt post-Mania
So yeah.....6 months or so.

However long it takes Orton to get down the ramp.

Forever.
Seriously though, I'd let him hang onto it until WrestleMania. Punk/Bryan headlining WrestleMania XXX sounds just fine to me.

Until Night of Champions or Hell in a Cell at the latest when Randy Orton cashes in on him.
I'd like to see him win the Royal Rumble because it's the only way he can get another title shot due to Vince. Getting the Rumble win will be a bigger moment and look better on his résumé than if he simply keeps the title all that time and probably loses a little steam then ends up defending at Mania in a match that's at best third from top of the card.

I dunno, Orton's pretty fast. I say 17 seconds after Daniel wins Orton is already WWE champion. |

I want Orton to cash in at Summerslam and Bryan to hunt the belt for months, finally regaining it later this year. They are my two favorites on the roster, so I want a good, long feud for the biggest title.
