Following the WWE Draft 2020 last week, it was confirmed that Daniel Bryan would return to SmackDown tonight. This will be the WWE ThunderDome debut for the former multi-time World Champion. Bryan took some time off after the birth of his daughter and will now return to WWE television for the first time in months.

Prior to his leave, Bryan was instrumental in pushing Drew Gulak into important matches and reportedly used his backstage influence to help several Superstars on SmackDown. He is expected to do the same once he comes back. However, now we could see him be involved in interesting feuds with higher stakes.

As of this writing, there’s no confirmation regarding WWE’s actual plans for Bryan on SmackDown tonight. We don’t know if he will be involved in a match or if his appearance would be limited to a promo. In either case, it is exciting to see the former WWE Champion make his return to SmackDown, and hopefully, there are a few good things in store for him on the Blue brand.
