Yes.
I want a straight-up match between Cena and Bryan. No shenanigans, no McMahons or HHH, just a clean 1-on-1 match. The storyline is clear as day to write:
Cena, the unstoppable face of the company for the last decade vs. Bryan, the hottest guy in the company right now and one of the best technical wrestlers on the planet. Size vs. speed, technical ability vs. raw strength, pure WWE product vs. Indy hero.
You have two very different wrestlers with vastly different styles that are both incredibly over as faces. There's no need to involve anyone else in the match, except Orton as the MITB winner (if you wanted too). There are so many ways to build up this match and what do we get: McMahon drama and special ref HHH.
Ugh.

When Vince started sniffing around I stopped watching RAW.I can't deal with him being in main event angles anymore.

It has definitely hampered it.
But not killed it dead.

Daniel Bryan is the hottest he's ever been and could create a career defining moment on Sunday. Nothing they could do could kill how happy I am for Bryan to be in the main event of one of the biggest PPVs the WWE has, competing for the top belt in a Face versus Face feud.

Have I lost all interest in it? Nah.
BUT, I'd be lying if I said my hard-on for the match hasn't gotten more than a little soft.

I'm definitely still into it, I just don't feel as excited about it anymore. I fully expect McShenanigans to occur that cost Cena the title to Bryan, only for Orton to come out and beat Bryan to effectively turn him heel.
It'll be a great turn for Orton, at least.

No, but it seems really unnecessary. At best it's just spotlight grabbing, at worst leads to a screwy finish.

It halved my interest. It's not been killed dead, but I'm not liking it nearly as much as I want to. The guys can cut great promos on each other and the inclusion of the McMahons has really annoyed me. It could have stopped at the make over and been fine. It feels like the McMahons feel this feud needs them to help make it bigger and that's really misguided if that's the case. When I see the match, I'll be counting the seconds until the inevitable run in by Vince and Maddox.

If I had to choose between the McMahons getting involved and Cena and Bryan's interactions devolving into "WWE Guy" vs. " 'Real' Wrestler", I'd rather have the McMahons.

Hasn't killed it, but there are waaay too many moving pieces in this one match. The MizTV bit should have ended with Cena & Bryan staring each other down, or start throwing fists. HHH didn't do anything when he came out, just smiled. Then Orton comes out, and does nothing. You've still got Vince scheming, along with Maddox. And somewhere in this is still Stephanie.

It hasn't killed my interest in the match as I think these guys could do what Cena and Punk did a couple years ago at MITB. Realizing that coming out of this is going to be Randy Orton, Corporate champion with Vince at his side, with both Cena and Bryan chasing with HHH as their backer has killed any interest in anything that happens after Summerslam.

Pretty much. I've been loving all of Cena and Bryan's interactions together. Their last promo on MizTV was awesome in my opinion. This match holds up on its own.
McMahon and HHH entering into it has taken away, for me, that it's going to be a clean win for either Cena or Bryan. Both of which I wouldn't be mad at.

When Vince started sniffing around I stopped watching RAW.I can't deal with him being in main event angles anymore. How great would it be if McMahon/HHH segments on Raw started consistently pulling in the worst ratings of the show (especially if nobody else was in them).

Nope. Because I know the two of them are going to put on one hell of a match. I could have done without HHH being anywhere near it though(or on TV for that matter)

Yes because now it is pretty obvious there will be some sort of interference/tainted finish...
Also I'm just sick of HHH throwing himself in the hottest summer feud year after year 2011 he got involved with Punk when he was steaming hot, 2012 he took up Brock when he was hot off his return, and now this...does he even realize how obvious it is?

Hasn't killed my interest, but as soon as HHH came out, I knew he'd be the ref, & my initial reaction was, "Awww f*** NO". I proceeded to bitch about it all night. Seriously, f*** off HHH for involving yourself in this.
The sad thing is I generally like the dude too. Its just completely unnecessary for him to be involved in this.
