#4 Ziggler upsets AJ Styles, vacates the WWE Championship

Styles and Ziggler could have a really Phenomenal match
Styles and Ziggler could have a really Phenomenal match

Throughout their careers, both Styles and Ziggler have been compared to Shawn Michaels, arguably the greatest in-ring performer of all time. We can say without a shadow of a doubt that if these two men wrestled for the WWE Championship, they could tear it up.

At this point in time, AJ Styles does not have a challenger for the Royal Rumble. Of course, he cannot compete in the Royal Rumble match itself, as he is the current WWE Champion. What if Dolph Ziggler were to challenge AJ Styles and upset the Phenomenal One?

If this were to happen, Ziggler could relinquish yet another championship in the middle of the ring, to further his gimmick. It would make the Fastlane pay-per-view feel important, where a brand new WWE Champion could be crowned.

Some may argue that this will devalue the WWE Championship. That is a valid perspective, but it would also shake things up. The sudden air of uncertainty would make the product quite interesting indeed.
