We as WWE fans are fortunate to have AJ Styles on our weekly programming. Him making the move to WWE was an absolute gift to us all and it is important to always remember that. It is a very rare occasion that such a prolific, established star makes the jump from their already content confines, which in this case was NJPW, to the WWE.
Since arriving at the 2016 Royal Rumble, AJ Styles has not let anyone down. He has shown the world that he is worth his weight in gold and then some. He was a huge reason why Smackdown Live was such a huge success and ultimately why others are likely on the verge of following their former Bullet Club members to the WWE.

AJ should certainly be involved in the MITB match unless he has found a way by then to regain his WWE Title.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
