WWE Money in the Bank 2018: 5 possible finishes for Daniel Bryan vs Big Cass

The Sequel
The Sequel

While many fans aren't particularly interested in seeing it, Daniel Bryan vs Big Cass is currently scheduled to take place this Sunday at Money in the Bank in Chicago, Illinois. The first bout between these two saw the leader of The Yes Movement score a decisive victory, but now, the seven-foot monster is back for revenge.

Many members of the WWE Universe have been speculating as to what will go down when these two meet for the second time, and in reality, there are plenty of options on the table. Both men have a lot to lose, and while Money in the Bank may not be the biggest pay-per-view in the world, it certainly serves as an excellent opportunity for both men to gain some momentum heading into SummerSlam.

With that being said, here are five possible finishes for Daniel Bryan vs Big Cass at WWE MITB.


#5 Cass Wins Clean

Imagine the riots

While the overwhelming assumption is that Daniel Bryan will once again get the best of Big Cass, not all is quite as simple as it seems. Sure, they may be extending this feud purely because neither man has anything else to do right now, but it genuinely feels like Big Cass is someone that the machine wants to invest in. Because of that, perhaps we're in for a bit of a shock on Sunday.

If anything it'd be quite intriguing to see what Bryan would be like after being humbled by the big man. It's not like he wouldn't be able to rebound from a defeat like this, because he's done it plenty of times before. You'd probably need to put this match on towards the end of the show due to the risk of the fans hijacking the rest of the event, but the long-term story could be worth it.

#4 Bryan wins via DQ

No thank you

Nobody likes a DQ finish, and if you say that you do, then you're lying to yourself. Obviously, Cass vs Bryan isn't going to be the most technical match in the history of professional wrestling, and to be honest, we aren't expecting it to be. So then, if WWE wants to keep Cass looking strong, having him force a DQ finish could be the way to go.

It could come after a 10-15 minute long battle in which Bryan does everything in his power to chop him down, only for Cass to nail him with a steel chair so that a disqualification is called. Both men can then move on to something new after a blow-off segment on SmackDown Live, and when you think about it, that could be the best outcome for everyone involved.

#3 Bryan wins via submission

While we've already seen this play out at Backlash, perhaps repetition is what they're going for here. As opposed to Bryan's win over Cass being seen as a fluke by some, Bryan can prove once and for all that he really is that good on the ground. Plus, and this is a minor point, we'd love to see what would happen if he threw a subtle hint to Mike Jackson.

Anyway, in terms of the match, it feels like they're starting to build up Bryan's Heel Hook, showcasing just how deep his arsenal goes. We could see Cass controlling the tempo of the match with his overwhelming power, only to get caught by a Heel Hook in the final stages of the contest. Who knows, perhaps it'll even be the catalyst for the long-awaited Big Cass babyface turn.

#2 Cass steals the win

Why Cass why?
Why Cass why?

While we aren't exactly suggesting that Cass should win with a roll-up or anything, having him steal the win in some way could be the best way forward for both guys. While we don't exactly want to see a third match between the two, they could always build up to a big showdown on any given episode of SmackDown Live where Bryan gets the final victory.

This way, at least Cass will have something to hold onto as he moves forward into whatever he does next. He can brag about the fact that Bryan threw everything he had at him, and yet, all Cass needed to do was get a little bit lucky and it was enough to give him the victory.

It sounds dull and it won't be well received, but you just never know when it comes to WWE.

#1 Bryan wins via pinfall

Once and for all
Once and for all

Daniel Bryan is one of the biggest stars in WWE right now, and if you really want to rubber stamp that, then you need to make a statement on Sunday. You could have him knock Cass down on several different occasions only for the big man to keep getting back up, and then finally, the flying knee finishes him off once and for all.

It'll give him a lot of momentum as he prepares, more than likely, to enter the WWE Championship scene over the next few months.

Yes, we are getting your hopes up - and we aren't sorry.
