The WWE Universe would've never thought they'd be seeing Daniel Bryan back competing inside a WWE ring again following his retirement in 2016.
But he would not give up and battled through the psychological distress and once again realized his dream when the WWE doctors cleared him for an in-ring return.
Bryan had his first return match at WrestleMania 34 teaming up with Shane McMahon in a tag team match against Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Post-WrestleMania, Bryan proved himself at the greatest royal rumble match when he smashed Rey Mysterio's record for the most time in a royal rumble match.
Bryan is now engaged in a program with Big Cass and had defeated 7-footer at last month's Backlash PPV. The feud might continue until the ideal time for Bryan to start a program with the Miz.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Considering that, how about we observe five best options for WWE to book the feud between Daniel Bryan and the Miz?
_________________________________________________________________________
#5 End his feud with Big Cass at Money in the Bank
Bryan lost his money in the bank qualifying match against Rusev a week ago on SmackDown Live. It was Bryan's first clean loss after his in-ring return.
And it seems Bryan will take on Big Cass again at Money in the Bank, which should stamp the finish of their fight.
Reports suggest that Big Cass had gained backstage heat after he neglected to adhere to the script amid a segment on the 1st May episode of SmackDown Live. That ought to be the reason Cass lost to Bryan clean at Backlash and got destroyed by Bryan on this week's SmackDown Live.
Bryan should defeat Cass at MITB and wrap up the feud for good and move on to enter the WWE title picture.
#4 A Fatal-Four way WWE Title Match at Extreme Rules
After Money in the Bank, Daniel Bryan might enter the WWE title scene with AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Samoa Joe.
It's unlikely that Shinsuke Nakamura will win the WWE Championship from AJ Styles at Money in the Bank. Shane McMahon made the match official through Twitter, and as per Cageside seats, an iron-man match might be the stipulation for their match at MITB.
Samoa Joe issued a challenge to the superstar who will be the WWE Champion after MITB and made his aims clear he is coming for the title.
A fatal four-way match for the WWE Championship coordinate at Extreme Rules would give the WWE title scene a lift. WWE ought not to rush Bryan's title win and should develop the story until the correct time.
#3 Win the WWE Championship at TLC and Miz cashes in MITB Contract
The TLC pay-per-view could be the occasion in which Daniel Bryan wins back the WWE Championship which he never lost. Bryan got stripped of the title because of neck injury bringing about his first retirement in 2016.
Bryan could win the title potentially from Samoa Joe who could be WWE Champion at the time in a classic TLC match, and this will open the door for the most expected feud in 2 years.
The Miz should cash in the MITB contract on Bryan and win the title for the second time in his career. The feud has all it takes to go all the way to a potential showdown at WrestleMania 35.
#2 Win the 2019 Royal Rumble
To be honest, this should've happened in 2014 or 2015. Bryan was the favourite to win those rumble matches, but he did not compete in 2014 and failed to win it the next year.
He came close to winning a royal rumble match when he lasted a record-breaking 76 minutes in the greatest royal rumble match at Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Bryan can win the 2019 royal rumble match and get his opportunity to face the Miz for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 35.
#1 Showdown with the Miz at WrestleMania 35
The feud that has been developing throughout the previous two years will have no better place to have a showdown other than WrestleMania 35 in New Jersey.
It will be a return to WrestleMania 30 where Daniel Bryan had the greatest win of his whole career when he won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The entire Superdome was loaded with yes chants as Daniel Bryan lifted the title.
The match has all it takes to make it to WrestleMania 35, and we can already hear the MetLife Stadium erupt in yes chants when Bryan vanquishes his greatest enemy and win back the WWE Championship.
Here's hoping that this moment will come to fruition.
