After losing to The Undertaker in WWE's undeniably creative Boneyard Match at WrestleMania 36, AJ Styles returned to RAW in a Gauntlet Match this week.

It becomes easier to believe that Styles "rose from the dead" if Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson pulled him from the grave after The Undertaker left. Otherwise, WWE can always pull the "emergency medical team" card to justify how AJ Styles is even alive right now.

Regardless, WWE hosted a Gauntlet Match to determine the final male entrant for this year's Corporate MITB Ladder Match.

Styles was the surprise final entrant. He pinned Humberto Carrillo to secure the victory. Undoubtedly, The Phenomenal One is a clear favorite to win the briefcase this year.

We know that heels in WWE always end up being more interesting MITB winners than babyfaces. With that being said, there are only two heel competitors competing on the men's side of things this Sunday, and out of King Corbin and AJ Styles, the latter pick seems like a better choice right now.
