This is the match that we always wanted but never really got. Yes, the two men have faced each other before but it was a throwaway match that nobody really cared about.
Randy Orton has shown a sick and vicious side to him that had been missing in quite some time. AJ Styles has played the consummate family man and he can be the perfect foil for Orton's mean and vicious tactics as he attempts to get into AJ Styles' head to break down The Phenomenal One.
Everyone talks about how great the match will be when the Phenomenal Forearm gets converted into an RKO, but people forget the mental aspect. These are two masters of psychology who can put on a real clinic.
And I'm glad this program is not for the WWE Championship because both of these WWE Superstars do not need a title to make this work.
