This week's edition of SmackDown Live ended on a shocking note, as Roman Reigns was supposed to issue a challenge for Summerslam, only to be crushed by some falling metal beams. Though WWE has since said that the incident was because of a forklift driver, the question still remains: who was driving the forklift, and was this 'accident', intentional?

According to the Wrestling Observer this week, Reigns' attacker will be revealed as Daniel Bryan, as the publication noted that the two are set to meet at Summerslam. After losing the SmackDown Tag Team Titles at Extreme Rules, Bryan said he would need to aim higher from now on, and there are few Superstars higher on WWE's totem pole than the Big Dog.

Fans with a good memory will recall Bryan successfully operating a forklift during his WWE World title match at Extreme Rules 2014 against Kane, making the Yes! Man a prime suspect.
