Styles merely responded to someone who interfered in two of his matches and stole an easy win from the leader of The O.C. This storyline saw Styles lock horns with The Undertaker in a Boneyard match at WrestleMania 36 which ended up being the main event.
Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
There’s no doubt that Styles can portray the role of a heel to absolute perfection. He went above and beyond to add more feud to his match with The Undertaker and drew it to a perfect conclusion with their match at the ‘Grandest Stage of Them All’.

He even had help from Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson but that didn't make a lot of difference. Although Styles ended up losing the match, it was one of his best performances that we have seen in WWE.
It is not a surprise to see Styles using excellent moves or deadly counters. But the biggest reason why he is so high up in this list is his dynamic with The Undertaker throughout their match.
Styles made The Phenom look better, something not everyone can do. Their match had drama, intensity, and tonnes of credibility which ultimately allowed the WWE Universe to remember how great The Deadman really is.
