Daniel Bryan vs. Cesaro - MITB qualifier

Another spot on the ladder match claimed

As the match started, the hooded vigilante that had exposed Sonya and Dolph's plans came back on before hinting at another big reveal, possibly involving the tag team division. Back from a break, Bryan was working on Cesaro's arm, attempting to weaken him. A hip toss into an armbar didn't last long as Cesaro overpowered him, lifting him up for a powerbomb.

Shinsuke tried to get involved as Cesaro was locking in the cross-face and Gulak took him out on the outside, making sure Bryan got a submission victory.

Result: Daniel Bryan def. Cesaro and will be joining the MITB ladder match

It's an ultimate battle of wills as super grapplers @WWEDanielBryan and @WWECesaro show no mercy in their #MITB Qualifying Match. #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/FBCQDmsaxk
