5 Things that could happen if Daniel Bryan wins the Intercontinental title

#2 Sami Zayn returns; challenges Daniel Bryan

After all, Sami Zayn never lost his Intercontinental Championship!

Former Intercontinental Champion, Sami Zayn will likely return to the company soon, and as per the rumor mill, WWE would insert him in an angle with the winner of the Intercontinental Championship tournament. Since he has had bad blood with Daniel Bryan in the past, it would make sense to reignite their rivalry when the Canadian comes back.

Sami and Daniel Bryan are two of the best in-ring technicians in the company, who likely had the first match of their rivalry at WrestleMania 36. Their bout at The Showcase of Immortals did not meet expectations. However, WWE have probably saved the best for the future pay-per-view events.

Nobody knows when The Great Liberator will rejoin the SmackDown roster, which is why WWE may save his return for an episode post a pay-per-view event. If the Creative books a rivalry between Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles, Zayn could return on the SmackDown episode after Extreme Rules.

Then, he could pursue the Intercontinental title and have a lengthy feud with Daniel Bryan until SummerSlam. Their long rivalry could finally culminate with a blockbuster encounter at The Biggest Party of the Summer.
