Why does Daniel Bryan need to head to AEW when there's a whole bunch of opponents waiting for him in NXT? He could have great feuds with Finn Balor, Adam Cole, Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano, Karrion Kross, or even Kyle O'Reilly!

Each one of the men came up through the independent circuit and Daniel Bryan has a lot in common with them.

For Daniel Bryan, NXT would not really be a step down because the black and gold brand is perceived to be equal to RAW and SmackDown ever since it moved to the USA Network.

In fact, this move would infuse the brand with new energy considering that the roster isn't as star-studded as it once was. The chains would be off for the maestro of the mat, who could attempt unique and creative things in the ring that he couldn't have done on SmackDown.
