5 things that must happen on WWE RAW, NXT, and SmackDown this week - New faction forms; Hall of Famer returns

#1 Edge must return to cost Daniel Bryan his match on WWE SmackDown

Daniel Bryan showered praise on Cesaro during WWE SmackDown last week. The Yes Man believes Cesaro deserves a shot at the Universal Championship more than anyone else. Bryan and Cesaro then teamed up to compete against Jey Uso and Seth Rollins.

Bryan delivered the final blow to Uso to pick up the victory for his team. While Cesaro was the man knocking for a Universal Title opportunity, The Tribal Chief chose to give Bryan another shot at the title instead.

However, the stakes are much higher this time as a loss for Bryan will result in his exit from the SmackDown brand. The Yes Man has been a huge part of SmackDown for years, and his exit would certainly hurt the brand.

This week on SmackDown, Bryan must fight with all his heart once again and come very close to victory before Edge returns to attack him. The attack must cause the match to end via disqualification, sparking a rivalry between Edge and Bryan.

The two men have been in each other’s bad books for a long time, and this rivalry will help them go ahead post-WrestleMania. The stage is set for Edge’s return and a rivalry between the two WWE veterans.
