Or not so random since she's getting it from D-Bry, but either way, bleh. So now she's part and parcel of what was a hot storyline coming in. I didn't watch tonight and I really don't plan to just out of protest to something so horrendously stupid, but...
For those who did watch it, how did the crowd respond? Are they in favor of more Brie-pushing or would they seemingly prefer to push her off a cliff? Or did they not give a damn at all, with this becoming yet another storyline wrecked by WWE's unsubtle booking team?

I don't think it's been wrecked (it can take one segment at times to ruin it all, but this one isn't it), but I do think they're seriously padding it out just to get it to the new year.

In my days working for the hospital in the embarrassing idiocy department (aka: Accident & Emergency on Friday & Saturday night) I've seen many things, Master Bryan, I've seen gnomes splintered, railings placed where they shouldn't be pointing, mobile phones & dual shock controllers stuck on vibrate...
But how did you think you'd explain a Bella being there, Mr Bryan? It's just not practical in physical or psychological terms.
You need help.
----- Non title joke time -----
I honestly do not see the point in someone who the crowd have little interest in being there, I'm sure she does indeed have fans (she gets some reaction in matches at times from some people as someone did point out to me last night after I made a joke about silence during the Bella's entrance) but in a feud with Randy & Bryan? That and the attempts at emoting I've seen have been pretty lacklustre from both Bellas since they've been on the show which makes the intensity & worry of said characters come off more like Miz Dad (minus humour) than JR shouting "WILL SOMEONE STOP THE DAMN MATCH?"
THEN AGAIN maybe it's a Debra between Rock/Austin around Wrestlemania 17 situation? She'll be included but it will be of no significance after a few weeks. As long as the rest of the story is well written it should be fine, I hope anyway.

her acting was so bad. Orton does the whole "AHHHHHH VAG" thing and totally wrecks Danielson and all the bella can do is just go "NO.....randy....NO...." poor bryan

All you can do is hope she steps up her game as a result of being in this storyline - if the last 5 years are any indicator I'm gonna guess that won't happen.
Seeing her being being pushed to the forefront is slowly killing all the goodwill AJ/Kaitlyn built the past few months for me.

Her presence to me was hardly intrusive and not overly noticeable. I didn't mind her being there at all. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Plus I prefer this Bella over Fake Tits Bella.

The shine has been fading off of this angle before Brie showed up IMO.

My problem with this is that there was no kayfabe explanation on why Brie turned face. Nothing. She's basically the same exact character except now we have to cheer for her and ignore all the heel things she has done in the past. I'm not asking for a 20 min promo or anything, just a backstage segment where she said that this engagement has open her eyes and realized that she needs to change.
I mean give us a reason to want to cheer for Brie and believe she's actual a face now.

If this angle is going to suffer, it's not going to be because Brie Bella got involved, I can tell you that much. Thing's already been losing steam for a few weeks.
Brie was getting some good pops during her match, which was pretty awesome to hear.

I just assumed they were putting her in a 'Miss Elizabeth' role. I think it could work if they did it right, but we all know they absolutely will not do it right.

She was pretty over for her first night.
Thing is though, she's going to need to be more than 'Bryan's girl' to sustain her overness. Having there just stand, taking Randy's insults was a fairly accurate representation of WWE's often regressive view of women.

Now that Brie and Bryan are together, the power of love has defeated the evil in her heart. What bugs me is that it seems like Brie is a face while Nikki seems to have been forgotten.

Acted as unemotional as ms elizabeth Elizabeth had quiet dignity. Brie has all the emotion of a wooden plank Brie will damage the Bryan storyline. People want to support him because he's an oddball everyman who's fighting against the establishment. It won't be as effective when he's fighting for the love of a bitch who has spent years flirting with every guest host that ever appeared, bullied other wrestlers, and calls every other woman she and her sister encounter fat or ugly (except for AJ who owned them brutally).

I think Nikki's still injuried. That, or we're doing a jealously angle eventually.

If they can still cheer him after he was an abusive boyfriend I don't see why him liking a Brie would do anything.

This thread is probably a contender for one of my favorite randomly inappropriate titles ever.

I don't get why she's there. She isn't really adding anything. Are we supposed to feel bad that Brie watches her fiance get RKO'd? That's a normal occurrence for most wrestlers, she's watched him take finishers from guys for the past few years, I don't get it.

I'm just glad to see a Diva in a main storyline who isn't AJ.
It's like a breath of fresh air.
