#2 Worst: Naomi’s legitimate injury angle

Not every eye was dry in the arena this week

It would be heartless to call this segment the ‘best’ thing about the show, so we are going to call it the ‘worst’ instead. Any Daniel Bryan fan knows about how he has had to relinquish his dreams because of his injuries in the past.

He was out there this week, to ask Naomi to relinquish her belt because of a legitimate injury. This is because she could not meet the 30-day championship title defence stipulation (we hope Goldberg and Lesnar know about this rule).

While it is absolutely awful that Naomi has to give up her dreams because of this injury, this segment felt unscripted and heartfelt. Having someone like Bryan out there gave it some legitimacy.

We’re sure that when Naomi does come back, the pop will be off the charts in every sense.
