#2 Brock Lesnar beating Daniel Bryan in quick time

The original plan for Survivor Series was for the Universal champion Brock Lesnar, representing Raw, to face WWE champion AJ Styles, who would have been representing SmackDown. However since Daniel Bryan defeated AJ Styles for the title on SmackDown this past week, Bryan will face Lesnar instead of Styles.

Bryan's transition into a heel and winning the WWE championship in the process was a shock to all and has helped revitalise his WWE career since he returned from injury earlier this year. That is why it's important for Bryan's momentum to continue going into this match, if Lesnar destroys Bryan with a series of German suplex's and F5's and then beats him, it will seriously damage Bryan in the long run.

A better way for this match to conclude would be to have Bryan get himself disqualified. If this were to happen then it would protect both stars as well as add heat to Bryan as the heel who is reluctant to face The Beast. It would be cheap heat for Bryan whilst growing the momentum of his run as the heel WWE champion, if WWE were to go down the route of having Lesnar destroy Bryan and pin him in quick time then he could lose this momentum.
