#1 This Is A Makeshift Storyline
This may sound irrelevant to some, but let's take a good look at it and try and understand why this storyline appeared out of thin air. Bryan is no longer on TV due to an attack by The Fiend last week, and there is no other current or returning superstar that could have made for a better opponent for the latter than The Awesome One.
The Miz has already called Wyatt to his talk show, Miz TV in the past, and the two do have a bit of a backstory to help the company alleviate this storyline next week and take it to a believable level. Yes, it may be a makeshift storyline in the absence of WWE's goat faced underdog, but given the company's ability to make a mountain out of a molehill, it can potentially reach a grand scale ( and even continue post-TLC).
