Yes! Yes! Yes!

Having been out of action for nearly four months now, Daniel Bryan is set to make his return to WWE programming on this Friday’s episode of SmackDown – itself being promoted as the big Season Two premiere on FOX for the blue brand.

D-Bry last competed in-ring in a losing effort to AJ Styles back in June, with that match being to determine a new Intercontinental Champion. That means that this Friday will also mark Bryan’s first appearance in WWE’s current ThunderDome setting at the Amway Center – and who knows, maybe he’ll have Sami Zayn and the Intercontinental Title in his sights upon his return.
