Daniel Bryan opened this week's SmackDown by laying out his passion for pro wrestling and intentions to headline WrestleMania all over again. Before he could get started, Michael Cole had one of the stupidest questions of all the times for him.

Why, Cole asked, would Dan turn down a tag-team match with Edge at Fastlane in favour of a Universal Title tilt against Roman Reigns? What? Hmm, that's a tough one; does proud babyface Bryan want to play second fiddle to Edge, or potentially become SmackDown's top champion before the most lucrative show of the year?

What a dumb bit of scripting.
