After failing to win the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37, Bryan now has another opportunity at Reigns’ title in a one-on-one match. If Reigns wins, Bryan will be banished from SmackDown.
Heyman, who serves as Reigns’ special counsel, co-hosts SmackDown post-show Talking Smack with Kayla Braxton. On this week’s episode, he warned those who want Bryan to win the Universal Championship.
Speaking in a recent interview with BT Sport, Daniel Bryan said he is unsure where his future lies. The SmackDown star revealed he felt an “odd detachment” from his WrestleMania 37 match. He also confirmed that his contract is due to expire soon.
Daniel Bryan’s previous Universal title matches
In night two’s WrestleMania 37 main event, Roman Reigns stacked Edge on top of Daniel Bryan before pinning both men to retain his Universal Championship.
Before that, Bryan failed to win the Universal Championship from Reigns at WWE Elimination Chamber and WWE Fastlane. He also unsuccessfully challenged “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt at WWE Survivor Series 2019 and the 2020 WWE Royal Rumble.
Although Bryan has never won the Universal Championship, he is still a five-time WWE world champion. He has held the WWE Championship on four occasions and the World Heavyweight Championship once.
