A huge pick-up for Smackdown!
16) AJ Styles Is The Number One Contender!
The main event of Smackdown Live was the triple threat to determine the number one contender for the United States Title: Sami Zayn vs AJ Styles vs Baron Corbin.
AJ Styles was able to pick up the win after hitting the ‘Phenomenal Forearm’ on Sami Zayn. Looks like we are getting Kevin Owens vs AJ Styles in the near future…
