#2 Daniel Bryan vs 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt (Strap Match for the Universal Championship)

He made us all believers
He made us all believers

This might very well be the greatest Strap Match of all time, as the two masterminds of SmackDown battered each other.

It was extremely hard-fought and the strap definitely did not take much away from the match. In fact, it added to the contest. Bryan, in particular, took one hell of a beating, with 'The Fiend' looking like a killer in the process.

Both of them displayed some extraordinary chemistry and provided fans with a gripping contest. And while everybody seemed certain that Bray Wyatt would win again, Daniel Bryan's defiant comeback had everyone believing that he could pull off the impossible, yet again. But in the end, the sheer force and brutality of the monstrous Fiend prevailed.

Bryan was selling the effects of his fight with 'The Fiend' and it remains to be seen whether he will change further.

The future is uncertain for the Leader of the Yes Movement, which makes his story so intriguing. You cannot keep your eyes off Daniel Bryan, especially when he makes the evil monster look so much dangerous than he already is.

This was Bray Wyatt's best match as 'The Fiend' and hey, the red light is gone as well!
