2. Bryan Conquers The Authority (2013-14)
Minutes after winning the WWE title at the 2013 SummerSlam, Daniel Bryan was done in by an Authority plot to have a more "desirable" Randy Orton be the face of the company. Bryan's attempts to get revenge in the ensuing months were ultimately in vain, and the angle petered out.
With an assist from an audience that would not let Bryan's time pass without a bigger moment in the sun, the feud was reignited, and Bryan got his shot. At WrestleMania 30, he completed a two-match parlay, defeating Triple H to get into the World title main event, which he then won.
