After this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, it is obvious that we are going to be getting a rematch between Ricochet and AJ Styles at Extreme Rules. This time, the United States Title will be on the line. That is because Styles pinned the current Champion and that is usually how it goes in WWE.
I wanted to pass along my theory on what I think will happen with AJ Styles at Extreme Rules and Summerslam.
Let’s start with Extreme Rules. I think that it will be a really good match, with Ricochet winning this time to retain the Title. After that happens, I think that things are going to get interesting.
My theory is that after Styles loses, he is going to attack Ricochet and turn heel. He will also be joined in this attack by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson. WWE has been teasing a reunion of “The Club” and I think that we are heading in that direction. The attack on Ricochet will solidify both the reunion and the heel turn.
This will ultimately set up a rematch between Ricochet and AJ Styles at Summerslam. With the heel turn, the rematch would have some extra heat added to it. Plus, the series between them will be tied at one win each. I think that if it was booked like this, fans would be extremely invested.
How would you feel if it went down like this? Let me know in the comment section below.
