WWE Royal Rumble 2017: 3 Reasons AJ Styles Should Face Undertaker
By Jay Sichler
1) The Undertaker vs AJ Styles Could Build the Foundation of a WrestleMania Dream Match
With WrestleMania right around the corner, WWE needs to start planning on what they are going to make their marquee events for the big extravaganza. Generally, the Royal Rumble is where we set the foundations for matchups to begin to take place.
Having Undertaker and Styles clashing at the Rumble could certainly lay down the foundation for a dream match. For years fans have wanted to see John Cena battle The Undertaker on the grand stage.
Last year it was rumored that the two were set to battle at WrestleMania 32. However, due to an injury Cena was unable to compete and The Deadman instead battled a returning Shane McMahon in an epic Hell in a Cell match.
With Cena and Undertaker now healthy now is the year that fans could finally be able to see this epic match. With The Royal Rumble looming WWE could have AJ Styles drop the WWE Championship to The Undertaker.
Later in the night John Cena could win the Royal Rumble setting up these two icons for the WWE Championship match at WrestleMania. While AJ Styles will be on the outside looking he will help set up a classic WrestleMania match for fans to see.
