WWE's original TLC plans for 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt was for him to face Daniel Bryan. Dave Meltzer was the first one to report that Bryan would not be facing Bray Wyatt at TLC and could be replaced by The Miz which was what happened on SmackDown.

Meltzer reported that Bryan himself had asked to be pulled out of the match with 'The Fiend', feeling that it was too soon for them to face each other and that the storyline needed more buildup.

Here's what Dave Meltzer had to say regarding Daniel Bryan not wanting to face Wyatt at TLC:

"Originally it was going to be Bray Wyatt and Daniel Bryan, and Daniel Bryan himself was actually pushing to delay it, you know he didn’t want to as he thought this PPV would be too soon. And I guess he is pretty hands-on with his story, which, if I was him, I would be too because I won’t want these people messing with my stories."
