We live on a timeline with both Kenny Omega and Daniel Bryan existing and they have faced each other in a singles match just once.

Their solitary encounter came at Pro Wrestling Guerilla in 2009. The match wasn't what you would expect as they had a more unorthodox, comedic-themed match. But if they were in AEW together, Omega vs. Bryan would blow the roof of the arena. If the latter is headed to All Elite Wrestling, that absolutely needs to happen.

The buck doesn't stop at the AEW World Champion. An MJF vs. Daniel Bryan feud would be magical. Bryan is one of the greatest babyfaces of all time, and a program against him would elevate The Salt of the Earth to the greatest heel in the industry.

How about a Daniel Bryan vs. Malakai Black angle? Black has a lot of similarities with Bryan, in-ring wise. If there's one person in AEW who can claim to have a better precision with his strikes, it's Malakai Black.

While Bryan against any of Jungle Boy, Miro, Jon Moxley, Cody Rhodes or PAC among many others would get wrestling purists salivating, we mustn't forget one man who just joined the promotion: CM Punk.

Both stars had a WrestleMania main event-worthy feud in 2012. Their matches at Over the Limit and Money in the Bank were bonafide classics. AEW should revisit this rivalry at least once.
