8 things WWE subtly told us on SmackDown: 4-time World champion makes big appearance change, Returning star turns face (November 29th, 2019)

#5. The rematch with Daniel Bryan and the new championship

This Thanksgiving special was perhaps the most Bray Wyatt-centric show that WWE has ever had. He was featured in 3 different Firefly Fun House segments, first promising a "new face" of the show and not delivering.

What he did, state, however, was the fact that he was interested in having a rematch against Daniel Bryan. It's one of the rare instances where a champion seeks a challenger again despite having a clean pin over them and for The Fiend/Bray Wyatt character, this has a lot more to do than just the championship.

You could even have the same feud without the title and it would be equally, if not more meaningful. But it's a good central feud to have on SmackDown and given that Wyatt is phenomenal and Daniel Bryan is on a whole other level, expect fireworks to happen in this feud from a character development storyline.

Even though Wyatt is the main man, the feud seems to be more about Daniel Bryan and where he's headed, with Wyatt (and The Miz) constantly warning him that he's going to be a changed man if he runs it back again. We have a lot more to say about this so stick around!
