Unexpected push from WWE star to be in AJ Styles' favor at New Year's Revolution? Exploring the possibility

On SmackDown's latest edition, Nick Aldis announced a triple threat match between Randy Orton, LA Knight, and AJ Styles at SmackDown: New Year's Revolution. Aldis also mentioned the winner of this match will face Roman Reigns at Royal Rumble 2024.

While each man involved in this match has a great chance of winning it, there is a chance that outside interference could help Styles defeat Orton and Knight. The outside interference in question can come from Jimmy Uso. While Jimmy, along with Solo Sikoa, did put Styles out of action a couple of months ago, he has a strong reason to help him.

In the coming weeks on SmackDown, WWE can present an angle in which Jimmy helps AJ Styles win because the former is angry with Roman Reigns. The reason behind Jimmy's anger can be traced back to last week's episode of SmackDown where Reigns announced Solo Sikoa would be the next Tribal Chief.

Hence, the angle can further mention that Jimmy Uso finally realizes he never had a future in The Bloodline, and as a token of apology to Styles, he could help him win the contender's match. While the angle is speculative, it will be interesting if WWE decides to go with something like this.
