Speaking of the Royal Rumble, Daniel Bryan has not won a single Rumble match in his career, but he holds an impressive record. Bryan entered the 50-man Greatest Royal Rumble at #2 and stayed in the match for a record one hour sixteen minutes!
Daniel Bryan’s performance at the Greatest Royal Rumble show his endurance. He is one of the best wrestlers out there, and if he can have the same endurance as the GRR, he could very well end up winning the 2021 Royal Rumble match.

The ‘American Dragon’ has won everything in the WWE. He is a Grand Slam Champion, has won numerous Slammy Awards, and has even won the Money In The Bank Ladder Match.
The only feather missing in his cap is a Royal Rumble victory; he has all the tools to win the match, but will he is a matter of waiting and watching.
It’s been a while since D-Bry main evented WrestleMania, and honestly, we wouldn’t mind to see him go toe-to-toe with Roman Reigns or Drew McIntyre at the grandest stage of them all. McIntyre looks the more likely opponent as Reigns has been rumored to face Goldberg.
