2) Daniel Bryan
Problems with McMahon and Bryan began to emerge during an episode of RAW in 2013. Vince was very displeased with the crowd reaction Daniel Bryan was getting while Triple H was cutting a promo. Vince never bought into Bryan’s gimmick or look, so this factor made him very upset. After refusing to put Bryan in WrestleMania’s main event, fans were outraged and let Vince know. McMahon was finally forced into adding Bryan into the main event match, a match he would go on to win. The controversy didn’t stop there. Fans were once again extremely upset when Bryan was eliminated during the Royal Rumble in 2015. Fans were so upset that the hashtag #canceltheWWENetwork was trending following the PPV. This time however, Vince didn’t budge.
According to Bryan, things have gotten better between the two. Although, Bryan admits he’s sure Vince doesn’t want to see him main event another WrestleMania match. Bryan stated that Vince doesn’t see him in the same light as a Cena or a Reigns. In addition to this, McMahon still hasn’t given Bryan the green light to return despite his medical clearance from doctors. It’ll be interesting to see how this one plays out between the two.
