2 reasons why The Fiend vs Daniel Bryan is a good idea and 1 reason why it isn't 

The Fiend won the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel, where he slayed The Beastslayer. Since Seth Rollins and The Fiend are in two different brands, they are not stretching the feud.

The Fiend hinted at his next target on SmackDown last week, attacking Daniel Bryan in the backstage area. When Nakamura and Cesaro beat Ali and Shorty G on the Blue Brand, Daniel Bryan was closely watching the match and Sami Zayn eventually tried to lure Bryan to join hands with Zayn and Nakamura. However, the segment was cut short by The Fiend, as Bryan was decimated by the Universal Champion.

Brock Lesnar, the WWE Champion, is scheduled to fight Rey Mysterio at Survivor Series. Following the attack on Daniel Bryan, it is clear that The Fiend will face Bryan at Survivor Series this month. Let's analyze two reasons why The Fiend vs Daniel Bryan is a good idea and one reason why it isn't.

#2 Good idea: Daniel Bryan never challenged for the Universal Championship before

Bryan as the WWE Champion

Daniel Bryan, a former WWE Champion, has a long list of achievements in WWE. Besides winning the WWE Championship five times, Bryan won the US Title once, Intercontinental Title once, and the Tag Team Titles once, making him a Grand Slam Champion. However, Bryan never got the opportunity of challenging the Universal Championship, which was introduced in 2016.

Bryan's most recent WWE Title run ended at WrestleMania 35, and the title reign lasted five months. In the past few years, a number of big names held or challenged the Universal Championship, which is one of the two World Titles of the company. Challenging for the Universal Championship helped Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe to establish their names, though they were never successful in capturing the belt.

Similarly, the Universal Championship match could be highly beneficial for Daniel Bryan. Having lost his momentum in the past couple of months, Bryan could ascent the top of the ladder again if he competes for the Universal Championship.

#1 Not a good idea: Another big loss could be detrimental for Daniel Bryan

The Fiend has been on a roll since making his in-ring debut a couple of weeks ago. Proving himself as one of the most frightening characters to be ever produced by WWE, he has destroyed everything in his path, winning the Universal Championship, within a few months of his debut. It will be the first title defence for The Fiend at Survivor Series, and he will be looking forward to sending a strong message to the SmackDown locker room, destroying his next opponent.

Daniel Bryan, on the other hand, has not been having a notable run in recent months. Teaming up with Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan won a tag team match at Hell in a Cell, but he lost singles matches to Buddy Murphy, Erick Rowan, and much more recently Adam Cole.

The former WWE Champion Bryan has turned a babyface. Given the momentum of The Fiend, it is improbable that The Fiend will lose to Bryan at Survivor Series. If Bryan loses another big match, it could affect the stature of the five-time WWE Champion.

#1 Good idea: Daniel Bryan and The Fiend could deliver a high-quality match

Daniel Bryan and Bray Wyatt are no strangers to each other, as they have a history in WWE. While Bryan and Wyatt crossed paths a couple of times in the past, the former was also a member of The Wyatt Family for a short period of time.

However, it will be a different bout with the new character of Bray Wyatt, who has been indomitable. Bray Wyatt is an outstanding performer in the squared circle, delivering several awe-inspiring matches in his career, and it has not been different as The Fiend. Even though his debut match against Finn Balor didn't last long, his previous two bouts with Seth Rollins were spectacular.

There is no doubt about the in-ring prowess of Daniel Bryan, who is considered one of the best wrestlers of Vince McMahon's company. Whenever Bryan steps in the ring, the expectations are always sky-high of producing great matches. Survivor Series already has a good match card, but the match between Daniel Bryan and The Fiend has the potential to steal the show.
