#3 An unlikely ally

Daniel Bryan is currently the best heel on Smackdown Live, as his portrayal of a vegan loving hippy is absolutely entertaining to watch, while AJ Styles, on the other hand, is in the prime of his life, as no one is better than Styles in between those ropes, so what could go wrong in a match between these two veterans?
Well WWE gave us the answer at the Royal Rumble, as sticking the WWE Championship match in a slot that would afford the match little to no reaction from the live crowd was a mistake.
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
Moreover, the fact of the matter is that this was a perfectly well-done match, but it had the unfortunate fate of having a tired crowd. As the only newsworthy thing that came from this match was the return of Erick Rowan, who aided Brayn in keeping his WWE Title.
Another screwy finish for a WWE Title match is just lazy at this point, but the prospect of Bryan forming his own group is an intriguing matter and Rowan being the first to pledge alliance to the goat-faced warrior was really shocking.
