Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass Match Announced for WWE Backlash 2018

Big Cass only recently returned to WWE, but he is already set for a big-time matchup against Daniel Bryan at WWE Backlash:

The wrestler tore his ACL last August but made his return last week on SmackDown Live. He will now battle Bryan in the May 6 pay-per-view in Newark, New Jersey.

Cass was part of the Superstar Shake-up and went after Bryan right away, interrupting an interview and calling him "little man" to his face:

He then attacked Bryan backstage during Tuesday's episode, and he was eventually granted a singles match at the upcoming PPV.

Bryan, who is just coming back from retirement, appeared set for an extended feud with The Miz that would result in some high-profile matches. However, it seems Big Cass has stolen the spotlight and will create a new battle going forward.

Of course, it wouldn't be surprising to see The Miz stay involved somehow as we head toward this bout.

Although the WWE Championship match between AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura remains the headliner of Backlash, the latest announcement is an interesting one.
