WWE Starrcade 2019: 5 Reasons why Vince McMahon won't allow Braun Strowman to beat The Fiend for the Universal Championship

#4 To reinitiate The Fiend’s feud with Daniel Bryan

WWE is yet to explore the full potential of this feud

In the last few weeks, we have seen The Fiend attack Daniel Bryan on multiple occasions which ultimately led to a match between the two at Survivor Series. Although Bryan couldn’t win the title, he ensured that the fans are heavily invested in their bout, and is arguably the only person on the main roster who can get the WWE Universe to turn on their Universal Champion.

Bryan’s rivalry with The Fiend has been exciting so far, given the intensity that they bring to the match. In fact, the entire narration of this storyline revolves around the mental instability risen from the passion for the craft which makes both Superstars equally interesting.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Hence, WWE might continue this feud by having Bryan attack The Fiend once the latter’s match with Braun Strowman is over. The two may then continue to feud for the next couple of weeks only to set up a grueling encounter at TLC.

Following this week's episode of SmackDown, Daniel Bryan has already fallen victim to The Fiend with the feud being reinitiated. It remains to be seen what version of Daniel Bryan we will see next week.
