At one point in time, both men were in different companies. With similarities in the way they wrestle, many considered this to be a dream match. Much like everyone considered Sting vs The Undertaker to be a dream match when Sting was in TNA.

With Daniel Bryan returning from injury at WrestleMania, it gave him a chance to really get back into the swing of things. Eric Young, along with his Sanity brethren, could be the perfect one to try to put Bryan "back on the shelf" so to speak. Picture this: Sanity giving Daniel Bryan the beat down of a lifetime week after week.

Because Kane is out due to injury right now, Daniel Bryan would take the beating by his lonesome. This scenario not only draws a definitive line between who the fans will root for and who they will boo, but it also gets Sanity over as established heels on the main roster and a group to be feared. Most importantly it gets the fans invested on an emotional level, and what more could you ask for than that?

Having Eric Young pick up the win with the help of Sanity will put him in a position to say "Hey, I beat Daniel Bryan." and it gives Sanity some credibility as a unit as well. It wouldn't hurt Daniel Bryan because most people who were fans of TNA and are fans of WWE, want to see this match. More importantly, he's Daniel Bryan!!!

They could really make this work with more time. They seem to work really well together.
