MITCHELL'S TAKE

I’ve got some bad news for some of you.

Daniel Bryan isn’t winning the WWE Championship at Summerslam. He’s not beating John Cena for the title by pinfall. He’s not beating him by submission. He’s not even doing one of those two things, then getting the rug pulled out from under him by a sudden RKO from Randy Orton, cashing in his Money in the he Bank briefcase.

The key to knowing Bryan won’t get that title isn’t the mid-card gimmick beard, or calling him a troll on every show, or having him come down like a good little boy to have his mommy pick out his clothes, or putting him in a suit that he half-ass rejects, or the times he waffled around about being the weak link, or making him go out there to “fess up to being 5'–8,” or sending Mr. McMahon pull that out from under him by tattle-telling that he’s really 5'–5" (the first time ever a promoter told the truth about a wrestlers’s height to the fans during a show), or showing his cruddy house and rabbit ears for his TV on the reality show, or having Mr. McMahon call him “an embarrassment” again.

PWTorch VIP members can continue reading Mitchell's entire column explaining the two examples of WWE tipping their hand Monday night on Raw in this week's PWTorch Newsletter, which was released online for VIP members and will be mailed to Torch subscribers.
