Cena = Probably already left the building
Punk = Nursing his own injuries, can't risk it even if he still respected Bryan enough to help
Kane = Missing in action
Big Show = Got his attitude adjusted by The Shield, and he's really a big coward anyway
Dolph = Ditto, and he knows he's just not in the league to meddle in these affairs
RVD = Too old for this shit, have to let the new gen fight their own battles
So it's really Bryan going it alone against the Corp. Pretty cool.

Tonight was all about setting up how The Corporation (for lack of a better name) are in total control like never before. You're not going to interfere in the Dbry beatdown that everyone saw coming, in fact, you're not even going to shoot your mouths of on twitter.
"When Daniel Bryan comes out none of you guys on the stage better touch him or there's going to be problems"
Damn it Hunter.

Don't worry, The Rock and Cena will be back around Survivor Series, help Bryan, then we'll get Rock vs. HHH and Orton vs. Cena (WWE Title) at WrestleMania XXX while Bryan is facing the Shield in a 6-man tag match in the middle of the card.

I know everyone here would be upset with it but I would love to see Sheamus return to help Bryan. Have the two of them finally squash their beef in the face of a greater evil.

What about Mark Henry? Triple H arranged for a late arriving fudge delivery in catering. |

You know, they didn't really show the wrestlers at the top of the ramp. I'm sure a few of them were acting out a bit while this was going on, but couldn't go out there because they knew it would be their jobs. I'll bet that's going to be one facet of this feud, people being cowed by the Reign Of Terror, and slowly starting to turn for Bryan.

I think that if any of the faces on the stage made a move to help Bryan, the heels on the stage would try to stop them and a brawl would break out.

Fixed. |

But the visual we needed was Bryan lying motionless in front of The McMahons because that makes you really really want to root for him, and this is great. I'm told. |

I liked the way they did it, but if they really wanted to build a new star tonight, they could have had one face go rogue and try to help Bryan.
Or if they're wanting to push PTP to the moon, them.

He said don't touch Bryan, nothing about not helping him. Thanks faces of WWE for just standing there and watching him get beat down.

One visual being great does not mean another one couldn't have been better. I liked the ending, but I wouldn't have minded a massive brawl after/before it. Might have been too big an image for the beginning of the angle though. |

"We have eyes and ears everywhere."
So much as speaking out against what Trips did on a website interview earns you a 3-v-1 handicap match.
The punishment for getting involved is probably much more severe.
People are for some reason angry once they finally get the sheer gravity and muscle of a "heel with power" angle right. Everytime they don't, people always fly off the handle with "can't they just fire X?!" It makes sense for them to have that kind of control.
I know "wait and see" has been meme'd to be associated with disappointment, and to a certain extent that's true, but here's the difference. Back when that was a thing, especially in Summer of Punk, it was the sole light in a dark void of really disappointing story after disappointing story. It worked in spite of the company direction.
Meanwhile, RAW has been consistently pretty good for a while now to the point where people think that one guy whose name escapes me is still in the writer's chair and wasn't released afterall. I'm not sure if this is the case, but it definitely feels different (even if overproduced).
