#8 Clash of Champions – AJ Styles(c) vs. Jinder Mahal (WWE Championship)

The Phenomenal One rises, the Modern Day Maharaja falls

Jinder Mahal’s WWE Championship reign seemed like it had no end in sight until AJ Styles defeated him on the UK SmackDown episode. This lead to Mahal invoking his rematch for the Clash of Champions pay-per-view and challenging for the belt for the first time since his match at Backlash.

Mahal busted out some new moves to attempt to regain the WWE Championship, but the match was a big disappointment for what many fans expect from Style’s matches. The WWE Championship match from the UK episode was really good, but their followup left a lot to be desired.

The biggest moments of the match were Mahal suplexing Styles on to the announcement table, Styles taking out The Singh Brothers, and Styles making Mahal submit with the Calf Crusher.
