10 Reasons WWE SmackDown Is Already Better Than Raw
1. Daniel Bryan
Remember when people thought Daniel Bryan lacked the charisma to be a WWE Superstar? How mental does that sound now?
In his new role as SmackDown GM, Daniel Bryan oozes enthusiasm. It's a similar quality as the one he brings to the Cruiserweight Classic.
On top of that, the fans still adore him. Whether he is doing a spot backstage or actually in the ring, every time he pops up he gets a great reaction. If he vouches for someone they might just get a bit of that too, and if someone lays their hands on him, you can bet they will booed out the building.
Perhaps more importantly, though, it is a pleasure having Daniel Bryan back on WWE TV. After the injury problems he went through, and the hell that must have been having to make that retirement decision, a happy and healthy looking Daniel Bryan is something I want to watch. And that alone makes SmackDown essential TV.
