5 Potential opponents for AJ Styles and the United States Championship

#1 Aleister Black

Black has all the makings of a main-eventer

One of the most unique characters on the WWE roster, Aleister Black has all the making of being the next big thing. The Dutchman was one of the dominant Superstars in NXT where he captured the NXT Championship and won the 2019 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic alongside Ricochet.

Black was drafted to RAW during the 2019 WWE Draft. RAW Executive Director, Paul Heyman is reportedly very high on the Dutch Destroyer and someone who he wants to build the Red Brand around.

Black has been squashing talent for the past few weeks and we believe that it is only a matter of time before he is put in a high profile feud. It is quite obvious that the company sees a lot of potential in Black and having him feud against Styles for the US Title might just be the first step in the evolution of Black as a main-event star.

Black vs Styles will be a dream match for a large part of the WWE Universe. It will be an interesting clash of styles.

It will be quite a sight to see Styles' high-octane offense being countered by Black's array of kicks. Both Black and Styles have lethal submission moves in their arsenal. This has all the makings of an all-time classic feud.
