Following tonight’s WWE SmackDown, we now know it will be “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt defending his WWE Universal Championship vs. Daniel Bryan.
There was a triple threat match to determine the number one contender for Bray Wyatt’s championship and it was Daniel Bryan who got the win. Here’s how it happened:
Bryan the first one on his feet. Bryan goes for the running knee, Miz reverses it into the Skull Crushing Finale. He goes for the cover but Bryan kicks out. Miz gets the figure four in the middle of the ring. Bryan fights back with right hands and Bryan counters it trying to get the LeBell Lock and he gets it locked in. The Miz taps out.
Here’s the updated card for the Royal Rumble on January 26 live from the Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas.
