Daniel Bryan Set to Compete at WrestleMania 34

YES! YES! YES!

Tonight on “Smackdown Live,” Daniel Bryan announced that he will be making his long-anticipated return to a WWE ring on the “grandest stage of them all.” He will be teaming with Shane McMahon against the team of Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, who have been given another opportunity after being fired on last week’s show.

Daniel Bryan issues WrestleMania challenge to Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn:SmackDown LIVE, March 27, 2018

A stipulation has been added to the match that states that if Owens & Zayn defeat Bryan & McMahon, they will reinstated to “Smackdown Live.” If they don’t, however, they will remain fired.

WWE.com has confirmed the match on their website. From the article:

To say that McMahon and Owens haven’t seen eye-to-eye since KO came to SmackDown LIVE would be an incredible understatement. The bad blood reached new levels of intensity several months ago when Zayn appeared from out of nowhere to help Owens win a barbaric Hell in a Cell Match against Shane-O-Mac, thus renewing his friendship with his former bitter rival. Owens and Zayn subsequently formed The “Yep!” Movement, spitefully rebelling against Shane, defying the Commissioner at every turn and even causing a rift between Shane and General Manager Daniel Bryan.

Prior to taking an indefinite leave of absence as Commissioner, Shane-O-Mac created a WrestleMania match between the best friends, only to be ruthlessly brutalized by KO and Zayn.

Things took a drastic turn the following week for several reasons. First came the incredible news that Bryan, who was forced to retire from squared-circle competition in February 2016, had once again been cleared to battle inside a WWE ring. Then, on SmackDown LIVE, Bryan admitted that he was wrong to side with Owens & Zayn against Shane and proceeded to somewhat remorsefully fire the pair outright due to their attack on the departing head of Team Blue. In response, Owens & Zayn unleashed a harrowing assault on Bryan that culminated in an Apron Powerbomb!

The next week, Bryan set out to get retribution for himself and for Shane by offering his fired foes an “opportunity” to get back to work. The “Yes!” Man challenged Owens & Zayn to a tag team match against him and Shane, and the duo agreed to face them at WrestleMania.

Editor’s Opinion:

I’m sure that many of us saw this coming, but I don’t care. It is going to be amazing to see Daniel Bryan return to action in the city that afforded him his greatest triumph in WWE!
