One of the most beloved men in the history of WWE is Daniel Bryan. From his run as the underdog babyface that the fans chose, to his recent heel run as the Planets Champion, he’s always been a favorite of fans. He might have also given fans another reason to love him.
Earlier this year, he helped to boost Drew Gulaks standing on Smackdown Live, and now it seems like he’s using his influence again.
Gran Metalik’s Push Is Being Attributed To Daniel Bryan
Starting with Gran Metalik getting a chance at AJ Styles for the Intercontinental Championship, we could see more undercard and overlooked talents get bigger chances to shine. This is because Daniel Bryan has been pushing for men like him, Chad Gable & Lince Dorado to get more chances on TV.
Due to his past successes and reliable nature, men like Vince McMahon & Bruce Prichard are inclined to listen to Bryan, which he’s using not to benefit himself. Instead, he wants to boost the entire WWE roster.
Metalik got two great chances to shine, and despite losing to AJ Styles, he’s set to feud with Cesaro & Shinsuke Nakamura alongside Lince Dorado. This will keep him featured on TV for the coming weeks, his first role of prominence since he made it to the finals of the Cruiserweight Classic.
Chad Gable Will Get Some Help As Well
While he refused to accept Daniel Bryan as his father, Gable might be thanking Bryan soon. For many months now, he’s been known as Shorty G. This new ringname killed all the interest fans had in him following a fantastic run through King Of The Ring, but it’s likely to be dropped now.
Gable has aligned with King Corbin following this past episode of Smackdown Live, which should mean we get to see more of him working with Matt Riddle. This is something sure to give us some incredible matches. This again, could be attributed to Daniel Bryan pitching ideas backstage.
