#2.) Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan’s 3-year journey on SmackDown Live has been an interesting one. He spent nearly half the time as an authority figure and the second-half has been in his return as an in-ring competitor. He was a fan-favorite babyface authority figure and when he returned, he had to scratch and claw to get back on top. It only took him 7 months to regain the WWE Championship and he would have a shocking heel turn that took his career to a whole new level.
Bryan has been very vocal about his loyalty towards SmackDown Live and it’s hard to imagine him going to RAW.
