The WWE Universe is still in awe of Daniel Bryan's latest promo. "The Beard" was caught backstage for an online exclusive and asked for his reaction to what Big Cass had said on SmackDown Live moments before. And what he did during the 1:40 clip proves exactly why he's a favourite amongst wrestling fans. Because, well, he just unleashed hell on Big Cass. The seven-footer cut a promo himself that aired on SmackDown - but it's fair to say that most fans weren't very interested - because they're not fully behind the pair's feud. But Bryan's incredible response has finally got people interested - and if you haven't seen it yet, check it out below. Damn, Big Cass might not even recover from that, let alone what Bryan promises to do at Money in the Bank. JUST ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE Although fans haven't seen too much of this fire from Bryan before, ex-WWE writer Tom Casiello took to Twitter to assure that this is nothing new from the GOAT. Casiello dedicated a whole nine tweet thread to who he describes as an "A+ player" in WWE - and it's epic. "Yeah. I gotta take a sec to put this guy over. I worked with this phenomenal human a lot over the years. I wish I could adequately explain what these moments are like," he explained. "You grab Bryan backstage. He’s got matches/promos/an insane schedule, but still gives you that big smile. He asks what’s up. "You say we need to shoot something for dot-com. Minute long. A minute and a half. You give the basic rundown. It’s a reaction to something that aired, or a response to a promo... whatever." BRYAN BLOWS EVERYONE AWAY Casiello continued: "Now these dot-coms *usually* aren’t scripted. Some talent, you need to help them. They’re not writers, and that’s cool. But Bryan... this guy... this guy’s a whole other league. "You tell him what you need. And he looks at you like you just said ‘bananas are yellow’, and says, ‘Sure. Yeah. Makes sense. One sec.’ And then he kinda shrinks back into the corner. Looks at the floor. Shuffles his feet. About 30 seconds of awkward silence, then he says ‘Ok.’" What happens next, according to the former writer - is brilliant. "You think, ‘Ok? !’ and you ask if he wants to go now. And with those humble puppy dog eyes, he shrugs and says, ‘Sure. Let’s give it a shot.’ And you roll tape. And you get... well, you get *this*. "IN ONE TAKE. Yeah. He ‘got it’. One-and-done, as they say." Epic.

So, what we've learnt, is that Byran has been doing this stuff for years. And it just proves how lucky we are to have him back in a WWE ring.

This week’s episode of SmackDown Live featured Big Cass returning to television to reveal he’s not, in fact, injured — or at least if he was, he’s been cleared — and inserting himself into the Daniel Bryan vs. Samoa Joe men’s Money in the Bank ladder match qualifier. Naturally, Joe put Bryan to sleep and Cass beat Bryan down after. This was payback for Bryan both beating him at Backlash and then doing the same on SmackDown days later. The booking was such that it seemed they may be going their separate ways. Nope! Now they’ll meet once more at the upcoming Money in the Bank pay-per-view (PPV) set for Sun., June 17, 2018, at the Allstate Arena just outside Chicago, Illinois. Will this be the end? Here’s the updated Money in the Bank match card:<doc-sep>WWE fans haven't shied away from the fact that they dislike the current feud between Daniel Bryan and Big Cass on SmackDown LIVE. Following Bryan's triumphant return at WrestleMania 34 - where he and Shane McMahon defeated Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn - fans were waiting to see who the company would have feud with Bryan in his first singles storyline since he was cleared to return to in-ring competition. UNDERWHELMING FEUD Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura and The Miz were just some of the names that had been thrown around. So, the disappointment from WWE fans was understandable when Big Cass was unveiled as his first opponent after returning from injury and moving from Monday Night RAW to SmackDown LIVE in the Superstar Shake-up. Fans were hopeful that their storyline wouldn't continue after Backlash, as the former WWE Champion was victorious while Big Cass found himself in hot water after disobeying direct orders from Vince McMahon which resulted in backstage heat. Although there was an injury scare, which proved to be a work, the storyline is continuing with a rematch set for Money in the Bank while rumours have indicated that The Miz could get involved in the finish. With so much negativity being spouted towards the feud, Bryan has finally spoken out. When speaking to Inside The Ropes, Bryan revealed that he's enjoying working with someone of Cass' size, while it also gives Bryan an opportunity to show the world what his on-screen rival is capable of. ENJOYMENT According to IW Nerd, he said: "I’m a big believer - I know that everybody wants to see the big matches - I would have loved to have come back and gotten right into the big matches. We did a match with me and AJ Styles on SmackDown, but especially now with the brand split - Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura, all of these things. "But I also think you need to build to those. I’m somebody that’s always been, whether it’s been here or Ring Of Honor or whatever, I’ve worked hard at helping to bring new guys up. The idea of the old-timer who is trying to ‘keep his position’ and hold everybody down… I don’t think that works. I don’t think that’s sustainable and I think we need to build everybody up, and if everybody seems like superstars, then the whole company is more fun to watch. "I’ve actually enjoyed - I don’t enjoy getting booted in the face - I enjoy the challenge of wrestling somebody who is that big and newer, that sort of thing. I think it’s a good opportunity to show everybody what he can do. It’s also fun for me to go ‘OK, what do we have here?" It's clear that - even though fans might not like it - Big Cass fits the mould of a typical superstar that Vince loves. Bryan has nothing to gain by publicly bashing a feud which is clearly going to lead to much bigger and better things, should he sign a new deal with WWE which is the expectation right now. Still, Bryan deserves praise for wanting to get the best out of Big Cass and to show that to the world, rather than selfishly chasing the huge spots right off the bat.

If WWE fans had to pick one feud which they wish wasn't taking place on television right now, most of them would perhaps choose the Big Cass and Daniel Bryan storyline on SmackDown LIVE. Ever since Bryan returned to in-ring competition, fans were understandably excited and started to draft up lists of potential dream matches for the former SmackDown general manager. So, when Big Cass was revealed as his first singles feud back in WWE, it's clear to see why there was so much anger. BORING FEUD The WWE's perspective can be understood too. Big Cass, along with Samoa Joe, is someone who can be billed as a monster on the blue brand. Plus, if WWE wants Big Cass to go over as a huge heel, then Bryan - the most-loved WWE star in recent memory - is the perfect way to draw that desired heat. Although, he didn't do himself any favours by going against Vince McMahon's orders during one promo which saw him receive backstage heat. Despite the poor reception to this storyline, WWE is moving ahead with it, and a rematch between the pair is booked for Money in the Bank, which could finally end their rivalry. Big Cass had an excellent opportunity to deliver a brilliant promo to get the fans invested in their rematch, but again, that failed. BRILLIANT PROMO Strangely, WWE decided to upload a Bryan promo once SmackDown had gone off air and now, fans are calling it the best promo of the night and are questioning why it was left off the show. As you'll be able to see below, he said: "It's kind of funny, I'll never survive here...as if I haven't already succeeded here. See, Big Cass just thinks he's a big deal because he's big. And he keeps saying, 'Seven feet tall and you can't teach that!' "You know what you can't teach? Every single thing that I know. You can teach people the YES Lock, you can teach people a heel hook, you can teach people how to kick them in the head so it's shin bone to the dome when your momma ain't home. Okay? "But Big Cass, he hasn't learned any of that. Why? Because he's entitled and he's lazy. You think Big Cass had a message for me? Well, guess what? I've got a message for Big Cass. Big Cass, guess what? You said you're going to break my leg in half? You don't even know how! You haven't trained hard enough, you haven't been in the gym hard enough, you don't know how to wrestle hard enough to break my leg in half! "Do you wanna know what's going to happen at Money in the Bank? I'm going to make you tap out one more time. Whether it's the YES Lock, whether it's the heel hook, whether I just knee you in the face and stomp you in the face until you give up! That's what's going to happen at Money in the Bank! And you can't teach surviving that." Bryan was able to get the fans fired up in one promo, more than Big Cass has been able to do since their rivalry started, and the fans responded in kind on social media. If anything, Bryan's post-SmackDown promo has drawn more interest than what Big Cass had to say, especially since he practically buried the seven-foot giant.
