Yep. You can't make this shit up. And there are people out there who think having TV people involved in wrestling storylines is a good idea.
In better news, WWE officials have taken a shine to the chemistry between Bryan and his NXT Season 4 rookie, Derrick Bateman, so much so that they're thinking about making Bateman Alex Riley to Bryan's Miz, only in a face capacity. I haven't gotten a chance to check out NXT this year (ergo, I have no idea if Bateman's any good or not), but hey, if this means more of a shine on Bryan's standing in the company, I'm all for it.
ETA: This tidbit comes not from my little birdie, but from the 12/27 Wrestling Observer Newsletter:
Daniel Bryan beat Ted DiBiase in 5:13 with the LeBell lock. Much better than usual dark match and the crowd treated this like a main event with a huge response for Bryan.Nice.
