Again adrenaline, Daniel Bryan's best friend.
Being able to fight through the pain, fight through the agony.
Keeping his eye on the prize.
>> He understands what is at stake, an opportunity to battle for
the Universal Champion at Fastlane three weeks from Sunday against Reigns.
When you beat Reigns at Fastlane you got a main event WrestleMania.

it's with this foregone conclusion that Daniel Bryan's gonna get past Jey Uso.
So this is main event Jey we're talking about, okay.
>> Nobody's saying it's a foregone conclusion, Corey, I just said-
>> You're talking like it's
a foregone conclusion.
>> No, I'm setting the stakes for what this match means for Bryan.

tracks.
>> And now the dangerous Uso, the bad knee right on the announce table.
And Bryan screaming in pain.
>> Daniel Bryan may get counted out.
>> Uso wants to do more damage,
he wants to teach Daniel Bryan a lesson in his mind.
And now bad knee again driven into the steel post.
How can Bryan even continue?
>> [NOISE] >> Daniel Bryan
with Uso in his wheelhouse.
>> Uh-oh, look out.
>> Here comes Daniel Bryan.
And now Bryan driving Uso to the floor.
>> Right to the jaw of Jey Uso, Daniel Bryan now coming to life.
>> Where is Bryan getting this from?
Off the apron, running knee, Uso dropped >> But
at what cost to Daniel Bryan, immediately clutching his own knee.

>> Nobody home Bryan, bad knee, bad knee buckles.
The knee buckled, Uso took advantage and drove Bryan into the corner.

Both superstars in a precarious position.
Trying to balance on the top rope.
>> High above the ThunderDome and butterfly superplex for Bryan.
>> Trying to roll into the Yes Lock, center of the ring.
>> Can he get it locked in, he's got Uso's arm wrapped.

A very disappointed Daniel Bryan.

Daniel Bryan because he didn't lose the opportunity technically either.
It was a double count out.
>> And now Roman Reigns, Roman Reigns pummeling Bryan.
The Universal champion rushed in the ring, and now pummeling Daniel Bryan.
Reigns was embarrassed by Bryan earlier on tonight.
Bryan used the words cowardly when talking about the Universal Champion.
>> No, no, Roman's felt this before.
>> Bryan looking for the Yes Lock on the champion Roman Reigns.
And now it's in but a kick by Uso.
