1. Not Listening To The Fans!
Most importantly, WWE has endless resources to gauge fan reactions that they freely ignore all the time. If a Canadian crowd turns on the direction, it's Bizarroworld and so they ignore it. If a Jersey crowd turns on the direction, it's the post-Wrestlemania super-smarks and so they ignore it. If no one buys their crappy PPVs, it's because the PPV industry is dying and so they ignore it. Like really, what would be the worst that could happen from pushing Daniel Bryan as WWE champion for a few months? HHH could be proven wrong? Oh, yeah, never mind then.
