#3 Back in action?
Before this night of Raw, all evidence pointed to Daniel Bryan riding out his contract so that he might go wrestle in New Japan or Ring of Honor or wherever else. WWE was never going to medically clear him again. But then, thanks to Kane, this scuffle happened.
Daniel Bryan showed up on Raw to apologize for SmackDown's assault. This resulted in him being left alone in the dark with The Devil's Favorite Demon. Kane got physical by wrapping his hand around the SmackDown GM's throat, then appeared to chokeslam him.
Realistically, no chokeslam actually happened. That was the benefit of shooting this segment in the dark, but still, the implication of Bryan being involved in the action and taking a bump is progress.
