I think with the hype about Becky Lynch, the hype about AEW, what will Omega do, and then a bunch of just complaining that every thing else sucks, Daniel Bryan having the run of his career is completely flying under the radar and not being appreciated. He is completely immersed in this character and cutting promos the likes of which he never has. He is also tearing it up in the ring, having awesome matches every time he goes between the ropes.
I really wish people were giving him his flowers and propers that he deserves. I just feel it is not getting the appreciation it deserves, as in my eyes, he is the best all around performer in the business by a wide margin.
Do you all feel this way, or am I just enjoying him too much?

He took the ball and ran with it. He has a solid “preachy” heel character perfectly. The constant running down of the crowd, quoting famous authors like a douchebag, bringing up the fact that he refuses to wear his merch, it’s a damn good character that you want to see get his ass handed to him.
He clearly enjoys being a heel, which helps it just much as the material.

Stone colds 2001 run wasn’t really appreciated at the time either. It happens

I don't much care for Bryan these days but this run he has been nothing short of excellent.

I was on board with the heel turn right away and he's doing a really good job.

It's getting the respect it deserves and it's actually getting some good social media attention from non-WWE fans.

I'm so happy this run happened, if for no other reason than it finally shuts up the people who said he had no character beyond the "YES!" gimmick.

I think the Lesnar match was Brock’s second best match ever behind the Eddie Guerrero match in 2004. Brock yelling “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?” with a shocked look on his face after surviving is one of my favorite moments ever in wrestling legit.

I think half the problem is that his feud with Styles isn’t super compelling. Individually, he’s doing great work but it’s hard to split the two.

Yeah, people I work with who are not fans at all at-all saw the promo on Twitter and asked me what it was about. Later that day when Daniel tweeted about the sandwich, I showed it to them and they thought it was incredible as well.

It's flying under the radar 'cause it sucks. I agree. Not a fan of this at all. I don’t even think it’s the fact that he’s a heel. Heel Bryan could work... if he was similar to his Bryan Danielson 2006 run. Shaved head, maroon trunks and boots. “I have till 5”, Cattle Mutilation etc. Just a guy who knows he’s the best in the world and proves it every night. This incarnation of Bryan is rubbish. He’s “anti-commercialism” which is fair enough... but why does he look the same? Why has he still got the beard which was arguably the most marketable thing about him? It would make more sense if he shaved the beard and hair off to show he’s “real” I also couldn’t care less about the whole “I’m a VEGAN. Look at all you shameful meat eaters” stuff. It’s not for him. Someone like CJ Parker could pull off this environmental gimmick better... but Daniel Bryan should be about more than that.

Never been a big DB fan. Even during peak DB towards 30. But he’s putting in excellent work. Promo wise, character wise, match wise. Superb shit.

It's flying under the radar 'cause it sucks. Thanks for that insight. If you can't handle dissenting opinions, maybe keep yours to yourself. And FWIW, Bryan's heel work is good, but I find this run to be painfully bittersweet and tough for me to care about. Bryan should be a top face, especially after his return from retirement. There was no excuse for that to have been so ice cold. The only way for Bryan to save his career was to demand a heel turn.

Its a work and he needs to be marketable And I cant speak for Juice Robinson, but Bryan actually is the things he is preaching about makes sense complete and total sense.
