According to PWInsider.com, when WWE announced last week that Daniel Bryan would be returning at Money in the Bank and appearing on the pre-show, there was a feeling amongst wrestlers in the back that WWE officials are in no hurry to put Bryan back into the main event picture when he returns. Several talents cited guys like John Cena, Triple H and Batista, and noted those guys would never be brought back to appear on a pre-show.

Additionally, it's being said some WWE officials feel Daniel Bryan's bubble has "popped" in WWE, and numerous higher-ups in the company feel Bryan got injured when the company needed him the most. This is something that has several officials hesitant to let Bryan run with the ball when he returns.

Additionally, there are officials in WWE who remind others Daniel Bryan was supposed to face Sheamus at WrestleMania 30 until CM Punk quit, and Punk's departure is the only reason why Bryan was given a push.

Oh god. This article is so full of shit. Especially that last sentence.

I think this is a "leak" for WWE to play us: good way to get people back behind Bryan, who, from the latest info we have, may not be back as soon as expected.

As for the "preshow" thing, this is the WWE Network era ... and it's also the thing you get free on the TV PPV before it goes "black" and you have to order the show -- so it's a way to get it in front of people and hype the ladder match and entice people to buy. And to make the preshow relevant to WWE Network subscribers.
