PWInsider.com is reporting Daniel Bryan is expected to be at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida this week to prepare for his in-ring return.

Bryan was originally expected to stay out of the ring until the Royal Rumble match, but as we previously reported, he’s now being advertised to compete against Kane at a WWE live event in St. Louis on January 16th.

Bryan has also been added to several more events leading up to and after the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Bryan will appear in Abilene, Texas and San Antonio, Texas that same weekend on January 17th and 18th, respectively.

Following the Royal Rumble PPV, Bryan was added to events in New Mexico and Canada the last week of January, and he is scheduled to face Luke Harper on those shows.

Finally, Bryan is being promoted for the February 14th WWE live event in Tampa, Florida, as well as the February 15th WWE live event in Fort Myers, Florida.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh whyyyyyyyyyyy

Just save him for the fucking rumble and let him win, you cunts...

That.

Totally should have entered #30 as a flip from last year. Instant crazy mega pop.

I don't why they ruined his return! They should have made it a surprise return.

That would imply they can use logic, which we all know...they cant

I actually was thinking having him surprise everyone by being #2 and have a heel be #1..kinda like the Ziggler vs Jericho moment a few years ago

I can see why they chose not to make it a surprise. It's to make Bryan fans tune in, although they probably would be watching anyway because IT'S THE FUCKING ROYAL RUMBLE!
