AJ Styles is looking towards a huge opportunity at WWE Backlash France when he steps inside the ring with The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes with his Undisputed WWE Championship at stake. The Phenomenal One went through two high-caliber matches to secure the golden chance with the match set to take place in Lyon, France.
Moreover, Styles has proven his worth as a World Champion all over the world including WWE. Moreover, with Cody Rhodes already upsetting a certain section of the audience with his reign so far, WWE could switch plans and position AJ Styles as ‘The Guy.’ Here are 3 reasons a title change could happen at WWE Backlash France:
1. New direction for SmackDown
WWE product is known to have evolved over the years with recent memory witnessing a product never seen before. The new regime could up the ante by exploring a fresh direction for their premier show, SmackDown by making AJ Styles the face of the blue brand. This could come with a surprising victory over Cody Rhodes and ending his title reign even before it took shape to keep the fans hooked for this next chapter after a massive shocker.
2. Fans have already turned on Cody Rhodes
As mentioned, ever since Cody Rhodes finished his story at WrestleMania 40, a certain section of detractors have heckled him for his limited promo delivery and demeanor for not being an appealing champion like Roman Reigns. Moreover, the hatred for Rhodes has been increasing on social media day by day. Witnessing this, Triple H could make a huge switch and put the belt on AJ Styles to carry forward the new era.
3. Much-needed boost for AJ Styles’ career
AJ Styles had a spectacular beginning to his WWE career that carried on for a few years battling the likes of Roman Reigns, John Cena, and Seth Rollins, putting up exceptional matches. However, Styles has been lost in the shuffle for quite a while and this title win could give a much-needed boost to his career. With AJ inching to the end of his career, he could hang up the boots with one last Phenomenal Run as champion.
