5 possible storylines for Daniel Bryan heading into WrestleMania 36 

#2 Challenges for the Intercontinental Championship

Will Daniel Bryan go after the prestigious Intercontinental Championship?

The Universal Championship rivalry between 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt and Daniel Bryan was praised a lot by the critics and fans. Even the strap match at Royal Rumble received appreciation from all corners of the wrestling world, and this shows that Bryan is at his best whenever he is involved in a title feud. So, WWE could involve him in the Intercontinental Championship picture heading into WrestleMania 36.

The company raised a lot of eyebrows by announcing a 3-on-1 handicap match for the title at Elimination Chamber. Braun Strowman is scheduled to put his title on the line against the trio of Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, and Cesaro at the same time. It is unknown how this match will end because a clean win for Strowman will result in the burial of the other three men, while The Monster recently won the title, hence he deserves a lengthier reign as Champion.

Irrespective of how this match ends, WWE can insert Bryan in the Intercontinental Championship feud for WrestleMania. If Strowman retains the title, then WWE can book a singles match between the two Superstars as they have the caliber of pulling off a classic at the Grandest Stage.

However, if the heels win the title, WWE can book a betrayal angle where the other two Superstars would turn their back on the winner. With Strowman and Elias already in the mix, WWE can add Bryan to this feud and bring back the multi-man ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship. This move can raise the prestige of the mid-card title.
