Clash of Champions 2019: 5 best title changes in the history of the pay-per-view

#2 Daniel Bryan gets vindication and takes the US Title From The Miz (Night of Champions 2010)

The original iteration of NXT, WWE's Tuesday night experiment, wasn't exactly well-received. It had its ups and downs, and there were some fun and memorable moments, but most people would agree that the NXT we have now is much better for everyone. The biggest thing that came from that first season was not just the Nexus storyline, but the Daniel Bryan saga. From being looked down upon by Michael Cole and his "pro" The Miz from the beginning, to his losing streak, quitting the show, then finally being a founding member of The Nexus only to be fired immediately -- crazy times!

Bryan made his return in style as the surprise last member of Team WWE to take on his former NXT/Nexus teammates at SummerSlam in 2010. This would be followed by a renewal of his rivalry with The Miz (and to a lesser extent, Michael Cole, who was a Miz apologist and hated Bryan).

After weeks of fighting and attacks, and cheapshots from Alex Riley (The Miz's "rookie" in Season 2 of NXT), Bryan earned a shot at Miz's United States Championship. He was able to outsmart the Miz and Riley team and outwrestle The Miz himself, and forced Miz to tap out in the middle of the ring and earn his first championship in WWE. It was a big moment for Bryan, and maybe even bigger for a lot of his fans who had been following him long before he joined WWE.
