Yeah, this could be an awesome angle if done right. Thoughts, FAN?

Never been a fan of the Wyatts, this program might be alright.

Why does WWE insist on trying to make everyone a big deal fairly quick?

Don't like the Wyatts and I don't like Punk, so... Yeah, absolutely zero interest here.

Bryan's getting demoted It's this or face Orton again. This isn't a demotion for Bryan, it's more of a promotion for the Wyatts.

This is pretty a feud for now to keep him away from the title scene for now. Kinda like how Stone Cold feuded with Undertaker in late 1998 for a bit before returning to the title hunt in 1999.

Like I said in the other thread, the biggest heels excluding the kliq were ryback and Axel....so the WWE needed to promote some heels to fill the gap.

Dolph Ziggler, leading to various awkward backstage segments about each man's experience with AJ.

Well I sure as hell don't want to see Bryan/Orton again. So this seems like the perfect feud to me. It keeps Bryan close to the main storyline, but out of the title picture for a while. Orton moves on to other feuds and Bryan will likely regain the title at a later date.

Flat out, I just don't like the Wyatt Family. Rowan and Harper are pretty fun to watch in the ring and Wyatt has good delivery but I just don't care about these guys' characters.

This is a recipe for disaster.
CM Punk's act has gotten beyond stale and I've never thought too much of his in-ring work, so mashing this up with a dumb gimmick like the Wyatt family will make for some awful TV.
Bray Wyatt is basically some fat dude that forgot that it wasn't Halloween yet who tries to pull off the worst Charles Manson impersonation ever, and Rowan and Harper look like they belong on Duck Dynasty.
Oh, and they can't wrestle.
The only saving grace in this is Bryan, who doesn't even make sense to be in this feud to begin with.
Yet another reason to be completely unenthused by Monday Night Raw. Dunno who in their right mind would be entertained by this.

Oh, what the hell, I'll just repost this here, since it's more relevant for this thread than the Bryan one: I think this is a very odd choice for a feud in terms of clashing styles, and I wonder how it's going to play out. CM Punk's whole gimmick for the last two and a half years has been that he's a smark. He's the guy who "shoots" and uses all that special insider terminology that's only known by anyone with an internet connection and that makes him feel like a real guy instead of a stylized fictional character. Bryan's more over-the-top, but they've still been positioning him on a very similar level throughout much of his career (largely because they had him ride Punk's coattails to get him over). Wyatt, on the other hand, is almost a definitive cartoony New Generation gimmick. He's not a character who can be viewed through any lens of "realism" or "rational sense-making" at all, otherwise you'd be left wondering how the hell he ended up involved in a pro wrestling promotion at all, and why he hasn't been arrested yet. I joked about CM Punk calling him Husky Harris in a pipebomb, but really, it's near impossible to think of an in-character promo by the CM Punk character that treats the Wyatt Family completely seriously instead of trying to break down the fourth wall and bring up some hot topic smarkbait like every other feud he's ever had. Oh, and in retrospect, this post has virtually jack to do with Daniel Bryan, but it looks like it's going to be about the feud he's getting involved in, so it looked like the most appropriate place to post it.

I'm very entertained by this. I'm also out of my mind so it makes sense...

Dunno who in their right mind would be entertained by this. I'll be. Punk and Bryan are in my top ten of all time, Luke Harper's been one of my favorite big men for years, and Wyatt is just flat out awesome. Only "weak" link to me is Rowan, and I still like the guy.

Seems like they're building to a Survivor Series match of Kane and the Wyatt's vs Punk/Bryan/Miz/ ?
