WWE: 10 Reasons Randy Orton Will Struggle For Relevancy After WrestleMania 30
10. Orton Can't Beat Daniel Bryan (Again)
This would be so much easier of a story to tell had Randy Orton not cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase at Suummerslam. Orton using the stroke he has with Triple H and the Authority to screw over Daniel Bryan after he survived two matches and won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania would make for amazing television. The idea of Orton as champ with Batista glad to be Orton's bodyguard (leading to Bryan winning the title back because of botched Batista interference because Batista would want a shot at Bryan for the belt) is entertaining as hell. However, Orton's already screwed Daniel Bryan, it started the entire run that we've been on, and thus he absolutely cannot do it again (as the crowd would absolutely turn on it in a way that wouldn't be *wait for it* best for business).
