#2 Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles
Daniel Bryan defeated AJ Styles and successfully retained the WWE Championship, which he won surprisingly (following a heel turn) on November 13 in St. Louis, Missouri.
It’s important to remember that Bryan ended the second reign of Styles as WWE champion, which started in Manchester on November 7, 2017 and lasted a total of 371 days.
Styles dominated the match and punished Bryan with the best of his arsenal, and although he could never execute the Styles Clash, he did manage to do a lot of damage with the Calf Crusher.
For his part, Bryan showed great resistance and knew how to counterattack in the necessary moments. The self-styled 'The New Daniel Bryan' got the victory after reversing an Inside Cradle.
Daniel Bryan's first defense as WWE champion was a success against one of the best performers in the entire company. What awaits Bryan in 2019?
