#1 Daniel Bryan and Cesaro have a wrestling clinic on SmackDown
Trending
A couple of weeks ago on SmackDown, a match pitting Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro against Daniel Bryan and Otis took place. Though it was hardly memorable, the interactions between Bryan and Cesaro were absolutely electric, and the fans clamored for a singles clash between the two.
SnmackDown listened to the fans and booked the match this week. The two in-ring wizards weaved magic and had the best bout of the night, and possibly of the whole WWE programming this week. With endless amounts of reversals and counters, the two veterans of the business went all out and delivered a pay-per-view worthy match in the hardly 15 minutes they were granted.
Cesaro coming on top was a shocking outcome. Defeating someone of Bryan's stature has increased his stock big time, and he has momentum on his side heading into the Royal Rumble match. As for Bryan, this was his second straight loss in as many weeks on SmackDown, but going by WWE's booking patterns, this only increases his chances of winning the Rumble match.
