The Styles Clash is a finishing manoeuvre currently used by the WWE Champion, AJ Styles. Styles had performed the move in various promotions like TNA, Ring of Honor and NJPW before signing with WWE.
The Styles Clash is so dangerous that it could easily end a wrestler's career. In the past, wrestlers have made mistakes by tucking their heads forward, therefore, landing on their head or neck.
The move was originally banned by WWE in 2016 after Vince McMahon was told that former WWE superstar Yoshi Tatsu was injured by a botched Styles Clash by AJ Styles in Japan.
Chris Jericho, however, encouraged Vince to bring the move back. Jericho stated that Vince didn't even know what the move was before banning it. This caused Styles to use his submission move The Calf Crusher and The Phenomenal Forearm as his new finishers.
