Daniel Bryan cashed in his Money in the Bank title shot at the WWE Tables, Ladders and Chairs pay-per-view on Sunday night to become World heavyweight champion.
The wrestler took his opportunity when Big Show - who had just won the title from Mark Henry - was knocked out so Bryan had an easy pin.
I was surprised that there was a title switch to Bryan.
I haven't been confident in WWE's confidence in the star so was anticipating them making him the first person to cash in his title shot only to fall short.
Don't get me wrong, Daniel Bryan - or Bryan Danielson - without question deserved to have his moment.
It just didn't seem the right way to do it.
Bryan's role is as a babyface underdog and him sneaking a win like that is a heelish move.
I'm hoping he does get a decent run with the belt. However, taking into account the WWE management's track record, I am guessing this will be one of those title wins that will mean nothing in the long run.
