It looks like RAW has taken a page out of SmackDown’s book on how to build on new Superstars. Much like the company did for Ali and Andrade when they kicked off their main roster careers, it seems like Humberto Carrillo could be in-line for some great things too.

This week on RAW, Carrillo agreed to battle AJ Styles after the newcomer wrestled Universal Champion Seth Rollins last week. This was a great move by creative, as they continued to build on the momentum Carrillo earned last week. He seems like a true babyface who can do wonders on the main roster, and battling against someone like AJ Styles was going to increase his credibility no matter what. Carrillo once again managed to give a great performance against one of the best wrestlers in the industry and showed that he’s a top WWE prospect.

After the match, The Street Profits made the save as Carrillo suffered a beatdown from the three members of The O.C. While nothing was added to last week's Kevin Owens vs AJ Styles storyline, the angle did add fuel to the budding feud between The O.C. and The Street Profits.
