WWE RAW 1/28/2014 Review: 5 Things We Learned

5. Daniel Bryan Finally Takes A Stand

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teHMEFdZkmo&feature=c4-overview-vl&list=PLF0CB8E7B4C77DB61 It's been months in the making, as we have all watched Daniel Bryan fall victim time and again to The Authority and their wicked, unfair ways of 3-on-1 handicap matches pitting Bryan against The Shield or The Wyatts. B ut finally this week on RAW, Bryan took his disgust for not being included in the 2014 Royal Rumble match and headed straight to the ring to interrupt The Authority's opening segment of the program, and he finally took a stand for himself. This was a hot opening, and the crowd was electric for it. The caveat was Bryan getting in Triple H's face and telling him they weren't leaving the ring without a resolution to the way Bryan has been treated. And just as they got nose to nose, The Shield's music hit and Triple H stepped aside. The Shield hit the ring, but Sheamus and Cena made the save, setting up a 6-man tag main event for later in the program. WWE did the right thing, the smart thing here. They took the huge misstep that they made on Sunday's PPV, and turned it into another hot segment portrayed as Daniel Bryan being held back again, but this time he had had enough. Of course, WWE will tell us this was the plan all along behind the scenes, but it's clear that they have acknowledged their mistake, and are taking this ball and running with it.
