10 top male WWE Superstars of 2018

#3 Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan is the current WWE Champion.

Daniel Bryan was shockingly cleared to compete earlier this year after being retired for more than two years. He had his WrestleMania moment when he teamed up with Shane McMahon to defeat Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 34.

He then set a new record by lasting for 1 hour and 16 minutes (breaking Rey Mysterio's 1 hour and 2 minutes record) in the Greatest Royal Rumble match and defeated Big Cass on back to back pay per views. The Yes Man reformed Team Hell No with Kane but unsuccessfully challenged the Bludgeon Brothers for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.

He also had fun matches against Harper and Shelton Benjamin on SmackDown Live and faced off with Big E and Samoa Joe in a gauntlet match. He then entered into a dream rivalry with The Miz and came up on top.

After unsuccessfully challenging AJ Styles for the WWE Championship the first time that they faced off for the championship, Daniel Bryan turned heel and ended AJ Styles' historic WWE Championship reign. Daniel Bryan then competed in two back to back match of the year candidates when he faced Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series and defended his WWE Championship against AJ Styles at TLC. The WWE Champion will likely face Mustafa Ali for the WWE Championship at Royal Rumble.
