Personally I think Bisping just lucked out. He doesn't have the power to keep Wandy from walking through his punches , getting clinch and kneeing him unconscious IMO. Gouvea. Akiyama, or Kang would all be intriguing opponents for him IMO. Maybe even Mcfedries, but I think Bisping would need to go to the ground right away with him or risk another devastating KO, this time in the first 3 minutes of the fight. I actually favor Gouvea and Akiyama against him pretty confidently. Kang and him would be probably be the hardest to pick for me, as I think each is overhyped a bit. He could beat McFedries pretty quickly if he took it to the ground, but I don't know if he would. If they want someone with some name recognition to the casual fan he should beat, then how about Grove? They were on the same season and team of The ultimate fighter. They both won that season, but with Bisping having moved down to 185 they could fight. I am sure Zuffa could promote this with all the TUF footage, and the fact that these 2 guys like to talk a little smack .
 I think Wandy would have been bad for Bisping coming off that huge KO loss you don't want to fight a guy that has better stand up and hits even harder than the guy that just KOed you.
