5 things that prove WWE is trying to turn Daniel Bryan heel and tarnish his legacy

#4 Crowd reaction

The WWE Universe doing a Yes Chant with Daniel Bryan.

Daniel Bryan announced that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn would take on Aj Styles for The WWE Championship at The Royal Rumble and while the math is exactly what Smackdown Live needs in order to combat the triple threat match for The Universal Championship, it has also caused a lot of fans to be upset with Daniel Bryan.

In fact, Daniel Bryan tried to lead a round of yes chants with the crowd after making the announcement and only got a mixed reaction at best. Not only was that one of the worst crowd reactions to a Daniel Bryan promo in a very long time, it also shows that WWE is indeed starting to succeed in tarnishing the Superstar's legacy.
