As the June 19 Money in the Bank event approaches, observers are already talking about Styles possibly winning the event which would drag the rivalry further with Cena possibly nabbing the Summer Slam title. Both wrestlers are the best of their game in the respective worlds making Cen-Styles match a historic one.
In an effort to attract a sizeable chunk of viewers on a Tuesday night programming, WWE is positioning an immensely popular John Cena to headline its SmackDown which has long been considered as a secondary programming. Roman Reigns, on the other hand, is widely expected to lead Raw.
AJ Styles was in full heel mode and form as he faced Kofi Kingston in the ring on June 2’s SmackDown Thursday night event. The fight went great with frequent ringside rowdiness from Styles ‘Club’ and Kingston’s ‘New Day’.
WWE Money in the Bank 2016 is fast approaching with six out of the seven names being confirmed for the brutal ladder match. Roman Reigns is favored to knock Seth Rollins out in the World Heavyweight ladder match and AJ Styles may still beat crowd favorite and returnee John Cena following the latter’s downbeat at Monday Night Raw at the hands of the former with some help from ‘The Club’ party crashers.
Last Monday Night Raw was supposedly intended to welcome John Cena back to WWE after his months-long absence. The 15-time world champion did receive a ‘warm welcome’ after a traitorously blindsided by AJ Styles as his fellow Club members, Gallows and Anderson, viciously beat him down to the canvass.
Roman Reigns is not the typical babyface WWE champion seeking adulation from the crowd. But it is precisely his loathsome figure that makes him an exciting crowd-getter for WWE.
Brewing feud ahead of WWE Payback main event between Roman Reigns and AJ Styles is increasingly becoming hostile as Styles’ former Bullet Club stablemates appeared on Monday Night Raw and attacked Reigns. Does the group’s WWE reincarnation signals the Phenomenal One’s reunion with his Bullet Club pals?
