The landscape of WWE changed once again when Triple H revealed how the company would crown the inaugural World Heavyweight Champion. After the blockbuster announcement, fans pitched for recently returned star AJ Styles to win the new title at Night of Champions.
Last month, Triple H announced the return of the World Heavyweight Championship with a new belt design specifically for a brand that doesn't have Roman Reigns and the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Last week, the new title was assigned to Monday Night RAW during the Draft.
Recently, Triple H announced that superstars from the blue brand would get the opportunity to go after the new title. Fans immediately pushed for a match between RAW's Seth Rollins and SmackDown's AJ Styles in the finals for the title at WWE Night of Champions 2023, with The Phenomenal One winning the gold.

Last week, The O.C. was drafted together to WWE SmackDown, where AJ Styles made his return. The Phenomenal One winning the new World Heavyweight Championship would lead him back to Monday Night RAW as the face of the red brand.
AJ Styles has previously faced Seth Rollins for the WWE Universal Championship
In 2019, the company pushed Seth Rollins as one of the biggest faces after Roman Reigns took some time off and went away for a while. The Visionary ended up winning the Royal Rumble match and faced Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35.
Meanwhile, AJ Styles feuded with Randy Orton, and the two legends collided at the Grandest Stage of Them All. In the end, The Phenomenal One beat The Viper and continued his winning streak. After the event, he moved to the red brand, where he came face to face against Seth Rollins.
The two superstars feuded for a month after Superstar Shake-up on the red brand. The Phenomenal One got a shot at the Universal Champion Seth Rollins, and the two were set for a first-time-ever showdown at WWE Money in the Bank 2019 in Hartford, Connecticut.
After a stellar match, The Visionary was able to retain his title. Later, Styles formed The O.C. on the red brand and won the United States Championship.
Meanwhile, Seth Rollins feuded with Baron Corbin and Brock Lesnar over the summer before winning his second Universal Championship from The Beast Incarnate at SummerSlam 2019.
