WWE: 8 Wrestlers Expected To Get Big Pushes After WrestleMania 30

1. Daniel Bryan

Really, was there any other choice? The WWE Universe has created a groundswell of support behind Bryan that's defied belief and dwarfed any such fan-started campaign in the past. "YES!" chants fill the halls of arenas, his merchandise sells through the roof, and, as the ultimate underdog, he pulls on the heartstrings of the crowd every time he steps into the ring. The one thing Bryan does not have to his name is a lengthy reign as WWE World Heavyweight Champion. While there are naysayers who believe that WWE would find the idea of putting the strap on him at the show of shows too obvious (or true pessimists who believe that WWE doesn't want to commit to Bryan so powerfully on such a big stage), it's the perfect time to do it. Serendipity, even, as every ten years at WrestleMania, a confluence of support builds up behind a true wrestler's wrestler, and he and his fans are rewarded. So where does Bryan go after WrestleMania? Anywhere, really - there's no shortage of match options for him. Though his program with Randy Orton was beaten into the ground, he's still got Batista, a Cena rematch, Lesnar, Cesaro (let's hope), and hell €“ maybe a challenge from a returning CM Punk. After WrestleMania, we're going to get the true age of Bryan €“ let's enjoy the ride.
