#1: Daniel Bryan needed to be changed by The Fiend

Whether you like it or not, we are most likely going to see a new version of Daniel Bryan next week. Not only is he going to look different from a physical standpoint, but The Fiend ripping out Bryan's hair has to affect the latter mentally as well.

We know that The Fiend has changed Finn Balor and Seth Rollins into heels (although Rollins is on the verge at the moment), but unlike Rollins and Balor, it doesn't look like Bryan is going to turn heel anytime soon.

The YES Movement in 2019 solely exists because of The Fiend. The Authority is no longer a huge threat anymore, and in some way, you could say that The Fiend triggered this movement as Bryan's transformation from The Planet's Champion to the YES Man has already begun. However, The Fiend ripping out Daniel's hair might have put a dent on the latter's comeback.

Speaking from a broader perspective, Bryan couldn't defeat The Fiend just by leaning back towards a movement that put him on the map several years ago. What the Yes Man's character needs is a huge change in mentality, and that change might have been triggered when Wyatt put him through hell at the end of this week's SmackDown.
