What was the point? Why would you have the belt change so quickly

Because Vince thought the situation was thus:

>Sheamus is our next big babyface champ and everyone loves him
>Bryan is the small heel champion who always flukes out a win, everyone definitely hates him
>Sheamus squashing him will make him super over!

He was wrong.

WWE DRONES WILL DEFEND THIS!

If they would have just let them have a match then the yes movement wouldn't have happened.

>They did it to break up Daniel and AJ because he blamed the loss on her.
>They were trying to beat the Kane v Chavo quickest WM match record.
>As ever, they were trying to work the smarks.
>Punishment for getting cheered when he's not supposed to.

I was really looking forward to that match and Vince and Co. just spat in everyone's faces

this right here is where all the sjw crowd and indy shit begun

Do you base your entire thought process on 4chan posts you read all day?

They had zero clue where they wanted to go with Sheamus, so they just tossed pointless matches his way while working out his character and eventually failed

say what you want about DB, but (at least until the Daniel Wyatt bullshit) he had a logical character progression

The most entertaining Sheamus has ever been was with Cesaro

It would have in a different manner. It was not like Bryan got over from that match, it was that he was more over than Sheamus that the resulting backlash happened.

Bryan was always going to be more popular than Sheamus, this just jumpstarted the feeling that he was continuously being screwed over by WWE and pushed the YES chant from something that was catching on to something that was on fire.

Vince didn't understand that Sheamus wasn't really getting over as a babyface and that Bryan was becoming super popular with crowds.

He completely misread the standings of both of them and booked the completely wrong storyline for them.

Vince is fucking retarded. Someone please shoot him in the face so we can actually see compelling storylines and wrestling matches take place.

In theory the storyline of "small annoying heel champion that always cheats to win is squashed by big cool babyface" is perfectly sound.
The problem was Bryan and Sheamus did not remotely fit that storyline. Square pegs, round holes.
