Analysis
Story-wise, this was great. It adds drama going into the Elimination Chamber match. Bryan is going to have to battle through shoulder pain as well as five foes in order to win on Sunday.
It continues The Authority's plans of preventing Bryan from ascending the WWE, which could set up the Triple H vs. Bryan match at WrestleMania that many are expecting.
The journey to all those story elements was only somewhat entertaining, though.
One-sided bouts like this have a low ceiling in terms of excitement. It was dramatic and unsettling at moments but not compelling enough to not be tempted to reach for the remote.
