Since becoming the WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan has done an outstanding job at establishing himself as a heel once again. From one of the top faces of the brand, Bryan is by far one of the biggest villainous characters on the blue brand.

In doing so, Bryan has also declared that he will remain the WWE Champion forever but to do so, the man needs to put up great defenses for his title.

It is surprising to see WWE letting him take pinfall defeats in recent days. Last week, he took a pinfall from Kofi Kingston to allow the New Day member to get the push he deserved. Previously, he did the same for Mustafa Ali in order to establish the new superstar.

While both those pins helped in the storylines being created, Bryan taking the pin from Kevin Owens this week did not make much sense.

As Rowan was also part of the match, he should have taken the pin instead which would have been more logical. Letting the champion take so many pins will surely dent his image and could create some storyline hiccups.
