#1. Hope is true: Daniel Bryan pushing WWE to utilize more NXT stars

Daniel Bryan will likely be in the Universal/WWE title picture for a couple of more years to come, but upon his own admission, he seems to be entering the final stages of his career.

Daniel Bryan is one of the few Superstars who reportedly has creative control. It's not something Vince McMahon gives to many Superstars, but according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (WON), he is trying to push for younger stars and more WWE NXT talent despite the lack of interest:

"Bryan in particular with his role in creative has been pushing to bring in more NXT talent to Smackdown to freshen things up but the counter has been the track record of everyone brought up in the last two years from NXT and how Vince ends up losing interest in them and that there is a roster full of guys who could be used that aren’t even on television now."

We hope this is true because Daniel Bryan has a good creative vision, and using his influence to help younger superstars is the best thing he can do.
