Last week on WWE SmackDown, Daniel Bryan pinned Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn and one assumes that this has earned him a title shot at some point down the line for the Championship.

But what is very peculiar indeed is that no match for the title has been announced for TLC 2020 yet. What is even more strange at this point is that on previous episodes of WWE SmackDown, a Big E vs. Sami Zayn feud has been teased.

Daniel Bryan has pinned the Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn. Zayn's night just ended on a sour note. Don't look now, but Daniel Bryan, Rey Mysterio and Big E are standing tall after getting rid of Sami Zayn and Shinsuke Nakamura and torturing Dolph Ziggler. #SmackDown

Could there be a major swerve on this week's episode of WWE SmackDown, then, where Daniel Bryan vs. Sami Zayn is announced and because of the nature in which their previous encounter ended, the title is put on the line once again?

To the surprise of one and all, Daniel Bryan could emerge as the champion and a host of WWE SmackDown stars could then take him on in a ladder match for the title at WWE TLC. Maybe all 6 men that competed last week.
