The Yes Movement has been felt tonight at Wrestlemania XXX
in New Orleans at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. In front of 75,000
finger-pumping WWE fanatics, the bearded superhero Daniel Bryan beat the odds
stacked against him to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. The 4
hour mega-show which was broadcasted around the world on pay-per-view and the
WWE Network, ended in a massive celebration of fireworks, confetti, and
emotional outpour as Bryan celebrate an unfiltered moment of victory.
The evening opened with Daniel Bryan taking on Triple H
in a thrilling bout that was fast paced, violent, and filled with
pulse-pounding action. After making a glitz entrance on a throne with a golden
skull viking mask, the Game strutted to the ring with his fellow corporate
authority and wife Stephanie McMahon. There was no Hollywood tricks for DBryan
as he walked out to a moving visual of an entire football stadium of fans
pumping their hands in the air, chanting “Yes!” like their collective lives
depended on it.
The match that followed saw Triple H slam, kick, and
crack down on Bryan’s injured shoulder. Yet it was not enough to hold down, the
tough man from Aberdeen who kicked out of the King of King’s crowd jewel in his
wrestling crown, the Pedegreee facecrusher. Daniel Bryan showed off his
submission skills under the bright Wrestlemania lights, humbling the man who
had for months screwed him out of his earned place at the top of the card. An
enraged Stephanie hit the ring, slapping Bryan in a distraction to set up a
post-match attack by Trips with a steel chair.
This set the stage for the Triple Threat match for the
WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Enter with two title belts and a rocking
entrance song performed live by rock band Rev Theory, champion Randy Orton
followed by ‘the Animal’ Batista looked ready to deliver. The three competitors
put it all out there, and there was an invisible fourth element competing
against them: the fact that less than an hour earlier WWE fans saw the
legendary Undertaker lose his undefeated streak at Wrestlemania. These three
superstars elimnated that element quickly, and the New Orleans crowd was
re-electrified.
The match saw even more interference by Triple H and
Stephanie McMahon, Daniel Bryan smashed the Authority figure with his own
signature sledgehammer, and launched like a rocket out of the ring onto his
corporate enemies. As if that was not enough, Orton and Batista decided to
double up on the ‘Yes-Man’ with a nasty RKO and Batista-Bomb combination
through a ringside table. Among the wreckage, you could see Orotn writhing in
pain when it appeared he had landed on top of a monitor.
It seemed Daniel Bryan simply could not take anymore
damge as he is stretchered out of the stadium, but the man who rebelled against
the Authority rebelled again against the pain in his own body. Shoving off
medics, he climbed back into the ring and launched Running Knee strikes into
both of his opponents. There was close calls with Batista and Orton almost
pinning each other, but Bryan picked his spot and locked Big Dave into his
neck-crunching Labell Lock, forcing him to tap out. The reaction was pure magic
as the entire Superdome came unglued.
Daniel Bryan is the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
And no, he was not quickly screwed out of the title at the end of the show.
