While we have been quite impressed with Kofi Kingston's versatility, let's take a moment to appreciate how compelling 'The New' Daniel Bryan has been, as a heel.

Bryan's savage assaults to his opponents and the WWE Universe have propelled him to a different stratosphere of heels, with the WWE Champion continuing to be an irreplaceable asset to the blue brand.

Considering that the two were locked in to clash at Fastlane for the most coveted prize in sports entertainment, the decision to bring Owens as a replacement for Kofi seems very calculative, at this stage.

With the WWE Universe wanting to see Kofi win the WWE Championship, Fastlane didn't seem like an ideal time for Vince McMahon to pull the plug on Bryan's extremely incredible run.

Regardless of the fact that the former Intercontinental Champion deserves to hold the WWE Championship, let's not forget how conniving Bryan has been at his job.
