Soon after the announcements were made, Gulak took to Twitter and sent out a heartfelt message to Bryan. Check it out below:
Daniel Bryan and Gulak had a short stint together earlier this year
These two Superstars went at it at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, with Daniel Bryan picking up the victory over Gulak. They eventually garnered mutual respect for each other and formed a tag team on the SmackDown brand. The duo immediately kicked off a feud with Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Cesaro, on the road to WrestleMania 36.
At the event, Bryan failed to win the Intercontinental title from Zayn, while Gulak lost to Cesaro in a singles contest. Later on, Bryan and Gulak faced off in the first round of the Intercontinental title tournament, with Bryan eliminating him and advancing to the second round. This run, although short, was lauded by the fans and they admired the chemistry between Gulak and Bryan.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
