Yes, yes, yes! Daniel Bryan could show up on WWE RAW after his embarrassing loss to Roman Reigns in the SmackDown main event this week and crush it with the wealth of talent from the brand.
WWE RAW needs another strong babyface to make the three hours more engaging, and Daniel Bryan perfectly fits the bill. Now that we know that he can no longer be a part of the SmackDown brand anymore, it does make sense that he'll pick the red brand over NXT!
Here are 5 Superstars he can tussle with on WWE RAW. As always, feel free to name the most likely candidates in your opinion, in the comments section below.

#5 Can Daniel Bryan take on WWE RAW's apex predator?
We all know that the good things in the WWE RAW brand do not last for too long! RKBro may seem like a very cool tag team unit, but can you really imagine Randy Orton being able to put up with someone like Riddle? It's only a matter of time before Riddle is forced to eat an RKO and Orton goes heel again.
Enter Daniel Bryan. He is exactly the kind of opponent that Randy Orton needs in the WWE RAW brand. With all due respect to Bray Wyatt, that entire feud did nothing for Orton, and he's much better off against a pure babyface, who can go in the ring.
If he goes up against someone like Daniel Bryan and garners heel heat, it will remind the world what a great villain Orton truly is. Plus, can you imagine the sight of a running knee that Bryan's delivering upon his WWE RAW being converted into an RKO?
#4 David and Goliath could tussle on WWE RAW in a battle of the good guys
The title picture on WWE RAW is very interesting indeed. If Bobby Lashley is the clear heel in the triple threat main event at WrestleMania Backlash and Drew McIntyre is the pure babyface, where does that leave Braun Strowman?
While he is a babyface, there is certainly a shade of gray to him, which can be explored if Daniel Bryan goes up against him. Bear in mind that giants on WWE RAW go from babyface to heel at the drop of a hat, as we've seen with The Big Show in the past.
Daniel Bryan and Braun Strowman could have a very unique match, where the former goes in as the clear underdog. But with the use of his incredible technique, Bryan could make Strowman kiss the mat and tap out.
Because this is a feud that we have not yet seen with two top guys, there would be a sense of intrigue. And the Lord knows we need some excitement on the WWE RAW brand.
#3 The Fiend and Daniel Bryan have a score to settle on WWE RAW that's still unresolved
WWE RAW Superstar Bray Wyatt has been missing since WrestleMania where Alexa Bliss stabbed him in the back. One has to assume that he will get back to Bliss at some point, but before that he may have a score to settle.
One thing about Bray Wyatt in 'The Fiend' avatar is that he's always picking fights with those he has unresolved conflicts with. Whether it's Randy Orton on WWE RAW or his entire feud with Braun Strowman on SmackDown, The Fiend will either 'heal' or 'hurt' those that he has a history with.
Bray Wyatt is somewhere between a babyface and a heel, because of his character. Once Daniel Bryan arrives on WWE RAW, he could be haunted by a terrifying presence that wants payback for the time he was wronged.
In case you want a reminder of what we're talking about, just log into the WWE Network on Peacock and check out Daniel Bryan's time in the Wyatt Family. That was some good, compelling television.
#2 Daniel Bryan's arch-nemesis is a part of the WWE RAW brand!
WWE RAW Superstar, The Miz was the face of the RAW brand for a brief moment right before WrestleMania before he was defeated by Bobby Lashley. Ever since his feud with Bad Bunny, The Miz has just seemed very directionless indeed. Damian Priest may need a new partner now that Bad Bunny has disappeared into the sunset.
The most important thing to remember here is that The Miz and Daniel Bryan have been portrayed as mortal enemies. If you remember the promo that The Miz cut on Talking Smack that shook the wrestling world to its core, you'll know the origin of this rivalry. Daniel Bryan and The Miz could certainly renew hostilities in the RAW brand going forward.
This allows for so many opportunities, including a match between Daniel Bryan and John Morrison. Morrison has been The Miz's sidekick, and so have Elias and Jaxson Ryker who seem to have forged some sort of alliance as well.
Many matches could emerge from this feud on WWE RAW!
#1 Could Daniel Bryan end an All Mighty WWE RAW reign?
There's only one man who rules the roost on WWE RAW and his name is the All Mighty Bobby Lashley. The WWE Champion and Daniel Bryan could have quite the feud over the coming weeks.
Let's assume that Bobby Lashley beats both of his WrestleMania Backlash opponents and the following night on WWE RAW, he calls forth his next challenger. He is stunned when it is Daniel Bryan, now banned from SmackDown, who steps up to the plate!
In fact, if you check out the video above, in a Sportskeeda exclusive, former head writer for WWE, Vince Russo booked a scenario in which Bobby Lashley would be booked as Daniel Bryan's final opponent. This is what he had to say:
Bro, to me this last match should exemplify everything Daniel Bryan is like,” Russo said. “Bro, say it’s Lashley, say Lashley goes unscathed from now, and this is Lashley killing him, can’t put him away. And, bro, the longer it’s going on, the more Lashley’s running out of gas.
