Daniel Bryan stated he needs to change his methods to achieve his mission statement in WWE, but how will he do it?
After the events of Extreme Rules, Daniel Bryan lost his SmackDown Tag Team Titles and, in what seemed to be in a crazed state, announced that he has to aim higher to better accomplish his mission of protecting the world.
Poor D-Bry. He does all he can to protect Mama Nature, but he keeps getting foiled. Last week, we almost got his big announcement, but the hip-swiveling New Day spoiled his announcement yet again.
What is Bryan trying to tell us? Here are three possibilities:
Bryan IS The Authority
Daniel Bryan said he had to aim higher instead of focusing on things he couldn’t elevate. Well, maybe the “New” Daniel Bryan has received a “new” role with the company.
He was General Manager for a while, but we have to think this new announcement is going to be much, much bigger. Bryan has polished his resume and cover letter to join the corporate ranks of Stamford, Connecticut. Or maybe, a hostile takeover of the whole company.
But, but, why would he do that? Well, not only can he still wrestle for the company (a suit never stopped anyone), but he can implement changes. Catering? All Vegan now. Set design? Lighting and design are more eco-friendly. Backstage areas like locker rooms and control stations? Re-organized to save electricity and transport less.
Let’s not forget what he did with the WWE Championship. Imagine all the belts like that. Genius.
Yes? Yes? Yes? Probably Not.
Daniel Bryan 2020
What? Yeah. How else can you aim higher to save the planet than become the President of the United States. Everyone will answer to him, including Vince McMahon.
The Paris Agreement? How about doubling it?
Getting the US solely dependent on Green Energy with legislation like the Green New Deal? Bryan will double the efforts while shortening the time to get it done.
But wouldn’t people get in his way? Senators, Representatives, Governors, the voters? No! No! No! President Bryan will apply the LeBell Lock to all them. Congressional Gridlock will be replaced by submission to the El Presidente himself.
We will all be screaming YES! YES! YES! when we have off on the newest national holidays: Earth Day and Arbor Day.
Would you vote for Bryan? Who would his VP and Cabinet be?
He becomes Captain Planet
I mean, what can be more powerful than being President? How about becoming a god?
He is destined to be the savior of the planet; the planet chose him. He must fulfill his destiny of becoming Captain Planet.
I hear what you are saying: Bassam, are you suggesting that Daniel Bryan just become a super powered being?
Well, WWE has had superheroes before, like The Hurricane (What’s up with that?). Plus, we have seen our fair share of supernatural beings, like The Undertaker or the old Bray Wyatt. Is it really that much of a stretch if Daniel Bryan becomes an all-mighty god protecting the Earth.
If you want to double down on him being Captain Planet, you can make a stable with different wrestlers being his Planeteers. Rowan would probably be … I don’t know, Fire? Drake Maverick could probably be Heart.
