As amazing it would be to have Bryan vs. Morrison, Bourne, or Mysterio, I think Bryan needs to be built up better as a babyface before he starts losing heat to any high-fliers, which he would. Any one of those three matches would be AMAZING, and could possibly lead to a a heel turn (which he's actually pretty good at).
But if they're going to keep him as a face and just go for some serious work-rate, my pick goes to Swagger. They've never faced each other on ppv, they had that one little match on Old School Raw which shows they'll have chemistry, and it could go either way and neither would be hurt by the loss.
That's why I wouldn't choose Regal. The mark in me knows it would be an amazing match, but it's so obvious Bryan would and should win, Regal winning would be a huge step back, so why book something like for WM.
My pick is Swagger for the US Title or to unify the US and IC Titles. As someone else said, the built-in story with Swagger going for the title is too perfect.
