AJ Styles vs. Shane McMahon

AJ Styles had a terrific showing at the 2017 Elimination Chamber match. He survived from the beginning to the end, taking brutal bumps along the way from every Superstar. The WWE Championship wouldn’t be reclaimed by him after losing it to John Cena at the 2017 Royal Rumble, so it seems he could be moving on.

There’s still a one-on-one title rematch due to Styles, however. The same goes for Cena. Based on this WrestleMania 33 rumor from the Wrestling Observer, though, expect Shane McMahon to be his opponent.

This isn’t going to be the match that everyone anticipates due to Styles being an in-ring general and McMahon’s specialty being high-flying stunts. Sure, the Phenomenal One could put on an instant classic with nearly anyone, but there are more inspiring opponents for him at WrestleMania 33.

We have yet to see how the Shane vs. Styles feud may be built, something that could be accelerated with Elimination Chamber out of the picture. There will be an opportunity to make this interesting because we haven’t seen what the plan is, but to combat the internet blasting of this, the Road to WrestleMania 33 will have to be memorable.
