Nevertheless, Bryan announced his retirement from pro-wrestling in 2016, owing to concussion issues.
It was earlier this year that WWE and Bryan confirmed the fact that he’s been medically-cleared to make an in-ring return—an announcement which was received with widespread fanfare and celebration in the ensuing days.
The heart of the matter
Daniel Bryan is presently involved in a feud with Big Cass and is expected to continue his rivalry with the 7-footer in the weeks to come.
Regardless, the vast majority of professional wrestling fans and experts have been clamoring for the WWE to match up Bryan with some of the bigger names on the promotional roster today.
Accordingly, WWE has now put forth a list, that features 5 dream matches Bryan could wrestle in sooner rather than later—matchups that include singles showdowns against The Undertaker, Brock Lesnar, Finn Balor & Kurt Angle respectively.
Furthermore, the aforementioned video also noted that while Bryan holds a WrestleMania XXX victory over Triple H, the former’s wife Brie Bella was defeated by Stephanie McMahon at SummerSlam 2014. WWE added that perhaps Bryan & Brie can face off against Triple H & Stephanie in a Mixed Tag Team Match in the days to come.
What’s next?
Daniel Bryan is expected to continue his feud with Big Cass in the weeks to come on SmackDown Live—with Bryan currently being touted as the favorite to win the rivalry.
Experts believe that Bryan is set to be featured in several notable rivalries over the next few years in WWE.

Generally, the WWE tends to test the waters by putting forth dream match lists on its website and on social media, so as to gauge fan-reaction to the same.
Perhaps some of the aforementioned dream matches will indeed come to fruition in the near future.
