Daniel Bryan's absence from Royal Rumble provokes response from former WWE superstars

Daniel Bryan

WWE stars of yesteryear’s Armando Estrada, Shane Helms and Lance Storm discussed the ending of Royal Rumble and the fans reaction towards the absence of Daniel Bryan from the match on Twitter. Here’s what they had to say:

- Armando Estrada:

It amazes me how much a company constantly ignores the feedback/suggestions of its customers! #Terribleforbusiness

I hope @WWEDanielBryan doesn’t get @ZackRyder treatment. Aka ZackRydered. #nohaha

— Armando Estrada (@RealArmandoHaHa) January 27, 2014

The fans in Pittsburgh clearly voiced their displeasure with the booking of the last sequence of the match. Hopefully @wwe is listening.

You’re not allowed to get over in @Wwe unless they want you to. If you do, you can and will be punished. Has happened to many over the years

- Shane Helms:

Hey WWE I’m not trying to be rude but the crowd seems to really want Daniel Bryan. Juuuuuuust MAFAKIN Saying!! Geez

— Gregory Shane Helms (@ShaneHelmsCom) January 27, 2014

Fans, don’t blame Rey. He didn’t book this.

— Gregory Shane Helms (@ShaneHelmsCom) January 27, 2014

Sadly WWE is still run by “Muscle Marks.” It is what it is folks.

Roman Reigns is going to be an even bigger star now though.

— Gregory Shane Helms (@ShaneHelmsCom) January 27, 2014

But Batista makes the roster stronger. He’s a star no doubt. Plus, he’s a great human being.

— Gregory Shane Helms (@ShaneHelmsCom) January 27, 2014

Trust me! I wanted to see Daniel Bryan out there too!! Don’t confuse the issue. In my mind, he’s the most over guy in the biz right now.

- Lance Storm:

I don’t understand why everyone is so upset, considering they got exactly what was advertised and everyone predicted. #RoyalRumble

— Lance Storm (@LanceStorm) January 27, 2014

@WWEDanielBryan was not advertised in the Rumble, no one booked in other matches on PPV were booked in the Rumble it was promoted that way.

— Lance Storm (@LanceStorm) January 27, 2014

The current @WWEDanielBryan situation reminds me of Jerry Lynn vs RVD in ECW. By having him lose fans got more behind him “New F’N Show”

— Lance Storm (@LanceStorm) January 27, 2014

If you want to send a message Chanting won’t do it. Watch only @WWEDanielBryan segments on RAW, turn other segs off. That’s a message.

— Lance Storm (@LanceStorm) January 27, 2014

I’m a huge fan of @WWEDanielBryan I’m just pointing out that chanting and bitching online isn’t the way to accomplish what you want.
