AJ Styles turned the speculations true of becoming a heel by turning on Ricochet in the main event of last night’s WWE Raw. He demanded a rematch from the United States Champion following up his clean pinfall win against him, last week. The fighting title-holder dared to put the title on the line setting up the rematch. It witnessed the same outcome as Styles hit the Phenomenal Forearm to pin the champion.

The referee declared him as the new US champion who missed that Ricochet had his foot on the ropes. So he restarted the match and this time around, Ricochet caught AJ Styles in an inside cradle to pick up the win and retain the title. Gallows and Anderson appeared at the ringside offering hands to their Club leader. Soon, AJ responded to them with a cheap shot on Ricochet. The three of them pounced on the champion with a hellacious beatdown that ended with a Styles Clash off the top rope! Thus, The Phenomenal One went heel on WWE Raw to shock the WWE Universe.

AJ Styles had a solid in-ring comeback from the hiatus on last week’s edition of WWE Raw. He challenged Ricochet for the first time ever in a dream match that the WWE Universe has been waiting to see for a long time. Thankfully, it was a non-title match or else ‘the one and only’ could have lost the newly won United States Championship. AJ Styles picked up a clean win via pinfall to end the show.

As mentioned before, Ricochet is the new United States Champion by defeating Samoa Joe at WWE Stomping Grounds PPV event. So a clean win over the champion automatically makes The Phenomenal One a potential challenger for the mid-card title. So, WWE.com predicted that we might be getting a rematch between them at the upcoming PPV, perhaps. That’s exactly how the storyline approached as these two collided in a rematch. But we did not see the heel turn coming from AJ Styles. With The Club by his side, he is likely to rule the WWE Raw roster from now onwards.
