#1 A jobber pinning the world champion
Cut the comedy, WWE. Book A.J. seriously.
Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
Hey, before you say that James Ellsworth isn’t just any jobber, but a legitimate internet sensation; and that A.J. Styles did not technically lose the match...as Dean Ambrose delivered the Dirty Deeds; hear us out right now. A.J. Styles, as world champion should be running through the entire roster against serious opponents.
His in-ring skills have justified that. We don’t have a problem with Ellsworth getting involved in the show, but it shouldn’t be against the champion. Notice how both The Miz and Dolph Ziggler are taken more seriously after cutting the comedy entirely? And if this wasn’t bad enough, next week Ellsworth has a title shot. Are you kidding us, booking team?
