It was initially believed that the stipulation for Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan's match on WWE SmackDown would be for Bryan to retire if he loses to the Tribal Chief. However, WWE have made it clear that if Bryan loses, he will only be banished from SmackDown.

Cageside Seats have reported that the current speculation is that former WWE champion Daniel Bryan will lose on SmackDown and move to RAW or NXT:

'Based on WWE describing Friday’s Universal title match by saying “if Bryan loses, he’ll be banished from SmackDown”, speculation is Daniel Bryan will lose and move to another brand.'

Daniel Bryan has confirmed in interviews that he is looking to transition into a part-time role soon. So it was initially believed that a loss against Roman Reigns could be a way to write Bryan off TV. However, chances are that he will return soon and join either RAW or NXT instead.

It would be beneficial for Bryan to join NXT and help the young superstars of the black and gold brand.
