Rey Mysterio had a fantastic November, as he rejuvenated his character, reaching the top of the ladder once again. The former WWE Champion continued the storyline from Crown Jewel, and acted boldly by attacking Brock Lesnar. A furious 'Beast' left SmackDown to hunt Mysterio on RAW. Mysterio eventually lost to Lesnar at Survivor Series, but received another huge opportunity on the next episode of RAW.

Mysterio participated in a Fatal 4-Way match to select the next opponent for AJ Styles, who held the United States Championship. After a hard-fought battle, Mysterio came away victorious and fought AJ Styles on the very same night. Finishing a lengthy title run from Styles, Mysterio won the US Championship on the final RAW of November, ending the month on a high. Given his current momentum, he is expected to have a significant title reign.


#2 Daniel Bryan's face turn and feud with The Fiend

After bringing the Universal Championship to SmackDown, we didn't have to wait long to see The Fiend's next target. Daniel Bryan, a former WWE Champion, was sabotaged by The Fiend in the backstage area, starting a brand new feud.

Bryan was in serious need of a character change, and the rivalry allowed him to make a much-needed full fledged face turn. Attaining success as a babyface and the leader of 'Yes Movement', Bryan is certainly a stupendous good guy. Although he lost to The Fiend at Survivor Series, the rivalry will continue, as it was made clear on the final SmackDown of November. Having shown a glimpse of bringing back the 'Yes Movement' on the Blue Brand last week, Bryan could return to his popular old self soon, or we could see some significant changes considering he was pulled under the ring and had his hair cut by The Fiend. Either way, this feud looks to be highly entertaining in the weeks ahead.
