In another thread, it was mentioned that it made no sense for HHH to act nice to Bryan, when his whole plan involved Bryan in handcuffs being beat down. That's true, unless you realize that HHH did that to swerve US. We (meaning every single fan in the arenas and on TV) want Daniel Bryan to beat HHH. In storyline - the Yes Movement cheering for Bryan and booing everything else forced HHH to give in to Bryan's demands. We got Bryan the possibility of winning the WWE World Heavyweight title. We, the fans, had as much kayfabe power as the winner of the Royal Rumble. I doubt most of it was planned, a lot was just dumb luck. But so many things have happened to invest the fans in this to the point that they are actually ACTIVE participants in a story. - Batista returns - gets booed to high Hell during the Rumble, effectively forces WWE to turn him heel or face the worst-received title match in history
- Bryan left out of the Rumble - gets fans to boo the match itself and really kickstart the whole hijacking thing that led to the idea of the Yes Movement.
- Bryan screwed AGAIN at Elimination Chamber - fan reaction in the audience was complete disinterest in Orton
And how do they build doubt in Bryan winning his match? By letting HHH in the title match if he wins. And people, myself included, are so caught up in the story that our minds automatically jump to "Oh God HHH heel champ again" just at the very notion of that stipulation.
They payoff for this is going to be amazing, I'm honestly going to feel like I'VE won that title when Bryan finally does, and it's to the WWE's credit they've managed to reach that point, whether through dumb luck or if this was purposely done.

I feel like Triple H also kicked my ass when he beat Bryan up last night. Ergo, it means that when he beats the hell out of Hunner, I'm kicking HHH's f***ing head in.

Very curious to see what the reaction is if Trips wins.
