WWE WrestleMania 32: AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho Should Take Place at the Show
Round three of the AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho feud should wait until WrestleMania 32.
Since coming into the WWE at Royal Rumble, AJ Styles has been feuding with Chris Jericho. The Phenomenal One took the first round on the Raw after the Jan. pay-per-view while Y2J won the next one on SmackDown.
While all this has been going on, The Miz has worked his way into this feud. It started with a Miz TV segment, continued with singles matches against Styles, and a Highlight Reel with Jericho. He has stayed in the background of the feud while getting the daylights beaten out of him.

However, it could mean the B-lister is being used as a bridge for this feud between the two ring veterans.
In WWE’s Raw preview for Monday’s show, Miz was mentioned in the outline of what Styles and Jericho could be doing. He was called the “third wheel” of the situation. It could mean his role as just being the “guy who Styles beats to get momentum” will be increased.
If that’s going to be the case, a triple threat match for WWE Fastlane on Feb. 21 could be in made. This could be a chance for Styles or Jericho to get a PPV win with Miz being the fall guy.
It doesn’t seem like WWE would waste Styles vs. Jericho III on an episode of Raw or SmackDown given how much TV time it has received. This may be difficult to drag with six episodes of Raw between Fastlane and WrestleMania, but their rubber match should be taking place at the Show of Shows.

A third match on a big stage between Styles and Jericho has a chance to be an instant classic. They can pull out all the stops to make a match great, especially if given the opportunity to do so in front of 100,000 people.
It would be smart for this match to have a stipulation, especially with how long this feud would have lasted by the time Apr. 3 comes around. Doing a 2-out-of-3 falls match could be incredible. It would give fans a long look at what the former IWGP Champion can do in the ring while possibly getting a win.
There is also going to be plenty of gaps to fill with many top Superstars not set to appear at WrestleMania 32 due to injury. They could take up a chunk of the four-hour show, possibly 20 minutes with this match.
