Daniel Bryan has become synonymous with the perception of an underdog wrestler. Moreover, he has achieved so much in the wrestling industry. Throughout his career, Bryan assisted and developed Ring of Honor and the independent scene, to its current form, see video below. Ultimately Bryan's actions led to many other wrestlers success. Notably, the likes of; Richochet and Will Ospreay, to name a few. Bryan has cemented smaller guys as legitimate performers.
During his tenure with WWE Bryan built the 'Yes Movement' and earned multiple championships. Moreover, he became cherished by fans around the world. In early 2018 Bryan returned to ring action after an almost certain retirement. Since then he has gradually returned to prominence. At WWE Super Showdown his feud with The Miz will likely culminate, with the winner earning an opportunity at the WWE Championship.
Recently ESPN interviewed Daniel Bryan, he cited; "I want to wrestle Andrade Cien Almas because I love Lucha". Arguably Rey Mysterio is the ultimate luchador in wrestling. Therefore, it serves WWE greatly to arrange this match. Bryan versus Mysterio would be beneficial to everyone. Most notably, wrestling fans. Moreover, it would set standards surrounding smaller wrestlers. Ultimately proving their worth in the industry.
