5 Best feuds for Daniel Bryan heading into Money In The Bank

The Yes Man is back. What does the WWE have in store for him ahead of MITB?

Daniel Bryan is back. Yes! After a 2-year hiatus due to injury, he has finally been cleared to compete, adding a much-needed star power to the WWE. Earlier this week, Daniel Bryan defeated Jeff Hardy to get a step closer to the elusive MITB.

Sportskeeda is the one-stop destination for latest WWE rumors and wrestling news.

Following that, a face-off with Samoa Joe has been scheduled for next week. While Bryan may come close to winning the Money in the Bank, at this point it seems unlikely for him to lay his hands on the briefcase meaning he needs a big-game player to compete with him post Money in the Bank.

Here are five options for a possible and compelling feud in the future.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

#5 Daniel Bryan vs The Miz

The prolonged rivalry between the two might finally lead to the much awaited match. — The prolonged rivalry between the two might finally lead to the much-awaited match.

Daniel Bryan and The Miz have had their fair share of moments in the ring in the past decade. Miz’s charisma on the mic and Bryan’s in-ring charisma led to few amazing highlight reel moments for the two over the years.

Off late, The Miz has put on some of his best performances and what better way to reward that than a feud with one of the most popular Superstars of this era? Bryan too cannot be pushed into the main event right away after returning from such a long hiatus, and a feud with The Miz might just be the push he needs to get back to the top.

This is the perfect opportunity right before MITB, with The Miz claiming that Daniel Bryan is not in his level right now. What better way to prove that than a gripping rivalry?

#4 Daniel Bryan vs Seth Rollins

This is a dream feud for every wrestling fan out there. Daniel Bryan and Seth Rollins are arguably two of the best in-ring technicians at present in the WWE. Their Indie background and the Ring of Honor days could add a special dimension to their rivalry, keeping the fans intrigued.

Rollins is calling out WWE superstars to challenge for his United States championship and Daniel Bryan can make capitalise on this opportunity to get to the top. This feud will be an instant classic and could even be a potential Wrestlemania 35 bout.

#3 Daniel Bryan vs Randy Orton

This is a booking that will surely get the WWE fans excited. While Randy Orton is on a hiatus following a surgery, his return should be as a heel. As much as we love Orton as a babyface, there is no denying that his best years have come as a vicious heel, a psychopath who hears voices in his head and plays mind games.

Orton’s character has come to a stale with no real sense of direction or purpose. A sure, Hall of Famer when he retires, his last few years cannot be wasted and a heel turn with a feud against the top babyface might just be the spark needed to reignite his character. This rivalry is a sure crowd puller.

#2 Daniel Bryan vs Roman Reigns

Is it time to put these two wrestlers to their final test?

If there is another top Superstar who needs a desperate heel turn, it is the ‘Big Dog’ Roman Reigns. WWE‘s miserable attempts to establish him as a top babyface has failed immensely and it is time that Reigns is made a heel. At least as a recognized heel, the reactions of the crowd will make sense.

Right now, this looks like a real possibility as Reigns has talked up of a heel turn more so in the past months than he has in all his years in the WWE. It is clear that a heel turn is on the cards and will be sooner rather than later. And who better to help him turn than the most popular babyface in the industry, Daniel Bryan?

#1 Daniel Bryan vs Finn Balor

Will the Demon King and the Yes Man finally take on each other inside the squared circle?

It is no surprise that many Superstars wanted to have a dream match against Daniel Bryan ever since his return. Perhaps the best of them all would be “The Demon King vs. The Daniel Bryan”.

Finn Balor’s career has taken a hit ever since his devasting injury on his first day as the champion and had to miss Wrestlemania 33. He did return to Wrestlemania 34 in a Triple-threat match against The Miz and Seth Rollins.

The dream matchup already has the WWE universe buzzing, and Balor teased up the same by posting a fanart on his Instagram, that featured himself and Bryan facing each other off, on a Wrestlemania 35 poster, with the caption “Yes, please.”
