Daniel Bryan - So much love for Daniel Bryan, sure he has very good in ring skills, but thats not good enough. Tyson Kidd also has good in-ring skills, much like Masters and Barreta, but this isn't enough. He has 0 charisma, awful mic skills and the worst theme song in the WWE.
His In-ring skills are enough to give him a job and maybe a world title run, but one like Benoit, if they do it and he impresses me, then I'm fine, but if they do one like Swagger I riot, at least Swagger had mic skills and charisma.
Garbage, utter garbage.
The idea that Daniel Bryan has no charisma or can't cut a promo is a lie, an oft repeated, much cited lie, but a horrible, horrible lie nonetheless. Bryan oozes charisma. It's his own brand of charisma, to be sure, but it's the same kind of charisma that Benoit and a young Jericho had. The crowd is always engaged in what he does in the ring. He's still building himself, so you don't always hear a pop when he enters the arena, but you can be sure by the time he's done wrestling, that crowd is impressed with him. As far as mic skills? I have no idea what people talk about when they say he can't cut a promo. His skills are every bit as good as Benoit's were.. They're not flashy, they're not over the top, they're not electrifying. There's more than one way to skin a cat, and there's more than one way to cut a promo. It's quiet intensity, an underlying ferocity. He doesn't need to be flashy, he just needs to transmit the fact that he can kick your ass. And he does that very successfully. He's also humorous when he wants to be. Watch his shtick with Bateman, or his new youtube videos. He's a multifaceted, talented promo man who has a variety of weapons in his arsenal. Want proof that it's working? The crowd response when he got fired helped bring him back. Crowds react to him left and right, just like they did for Benoit. He's over, he's charismatic, and he can cut a promo. Deal with it.
And as far as the worst theme song, what's wrong with you? Have you even heard the tripe that Otunga and McGillicutty come out to? Or Chris Masters' utterly generic music? Ride of the Valkyries fits Bryan perfectly. It's classic, it stirs the blood, and it's an indication that someone is about to get fucked up. Pitch perfect for Bryan.
Furthermore, why would you be angry if Bryan got a similar title run to Swagger? In your world, Bryan isn't as good as Swagger. You should explore critical thinking, sometime.
