Speculation On What Is Next For AJ Styles And Shinsuke Nakamura After Backlash

The match between AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura ended in a double count out at Backlash. This came after both Nakamura and Styles hit one another with a low-blow at the same time. With the way that the match ended, we are obviously not finished with this feud just yet.

So where is this storyline going? Let’s speculate.

The finish made it obvious that this will be leading to another match at next months Money in the Bank PPV. The big question is, what will the stipulation be? No disqualification proved to be zero help for this rivalry, so they are going to have to take it up a notch.

If it was up to me, it would be an Iron Man match. No more screwy finishes. A final match for them to settle their rivalry. Each of their matches has felt like they were cut off too early. I think if they were given 30-minutes they could really tear the house down. An Iron Man match seems like it would be a good option for this rivalry.

I have also seen some fans suggest a Last Man Standing match. A few of these in the past have ended in a no-contest and I don’t want another screwy finish. Still, it remains an option. My personal preference would be an Iron Man match though.

What do you think the future has in store for these two? Let us know in the comment section.
