4. Daniel Bryan Finds A New Tag Team Partner

Due to Kane’s broken ankle from Bludgeon Bros’ ambush at Extreme Rules, Daniel Bryan needs a new tag team partner to fight the Bludgeon Bros at SummerSlam. As can be indicated in the link below from WWE’s YouTube page below, Daniel had to fight the majority of the tag title match at Extreme Rules on his own:

This was Daniel’s first PPV loss since he returned; since he still needs to get redemption and gain back momentum, he is definitely not done with the Bludgeon Brothers.

In terms of Daniel’s new tag partner, I can see why he keeps his friends close but his enemy closer. I foresee him teaming up with his greatest nemesis: The Miz. The Miz is the best option since he has been very invested in Team Hell No’s feud with the Bludgeon Bros, as can be indicated by his Miz TV segment in the link below from WWE’s YouTube page:

In fact, The Miz was also involved when The Bludgeon Bros attacked Daniel in the well-known #1 contender’s gauntlet match back in June. Check out the altercation in the link below from WWE’s YouTube’s page:
