WWE showed up in Montreal for their January 23 episode of SmackDown. Saturday Night’s Main Event will go down tomorrow, and we have another big match.
AJ Styles will take on Gunther at the Royal Rumble on January 31. If Styles loses the match, then his career will be over. He was already talking about retiring in 2026, but fans don’t want it to come so soon.
During this week’s SmackDown, Shinsuke Nakamura approached AJ Styles. Shinsuke told Styles that he didn’t want him going out like this before they can face each other again. That is when SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis booked the two for a singles match at Saturday Night’s Main Event tomorrow night.
AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura have a ton of history with each other. Not only did they throw down in NJPW, but they also had a stellar match on the grandest stage of them all. Styles beat Nakamura at WrestleMania 34 in a twenty-minute encounter that some regard as a classic to this day.
We will have to see what WWE brings to the table for Saturday Night’s Main Event, but this match certainly has potential. Only time will tell who walks out as the winner.
What’s your take on this new match for Saturday Night’s Main Event? Do you think that AJ Styles will win the title again before he retires? Let us know what you think in the comments section!
