Daniel Bryan To R-Truth: ‘How Can You Win The Royal Rumble If You Can’t Count To 30?’

Two of SmackDown Live’s most popular stars got into quite the argument tonight.

R-Truth and Carmella came out to the ring to cut a promo and do a “7-second carol break,” but they were quickly interrupted by none other than WWE Champion Daniel Bryan. Truth was dressed up like Santa Claus, and Bryan called the crowd “fickle” for playing into his act. Bryan said that Truth’s entire career is just a “tired, old joke.” Truth doesn’t mind this since he’ll be entering at number 30 at the Royal Rumble and that he’ll take the WWE Championship from Daniel Bryan…if he’s even still champion at that point.

Bryan was none too pleased by the veteran’s confidence. “Here’s a very legitimate question” posited Bryan. “How can you win the Royal Rumble if you can’t even count to 30?” This led to R-Truth counting to a 7-second dance break, which was ended prematurely by Bryan attacking him. First he damaged his leg against the ring post and then put Truth in a vicious looking leg-lock as Carmella looked on in shock.
