AJ Styles is just as confused as WWE fans when it comes to Alexa Bliss, Randy Orton, and Bray Wyatt's saga. When Styles mocked Orton's current dilemma on this week's WWE RAW, The Viper confronted him to set up a main event clash between the two.

Styles and Orton had a back-and-forth match, which featured an expected interruption from Bliss towards the end. Bliss popped up on the titantron when Omos took Styles out of the ring. She almost opened up the mysterious jack-in-the-box but didn't go all the way to fully open it up. Instead, she lit a match and blew it out. This led to the ring posts shooting fire with Orton in the ring. Only three out of the four ring posts shot fire, which led to some online speculation that it may have been a shot at AEW's explosive botch at Revolution.

Orton also coughed up the black liquid again, which allowed Styles to hit him with the Phenomenal Forearm to win the match.

This was yet another example of a slow-burn tease leading towards The Fiend's return. But the question remains — how exactly will Orton attempt to escape Bliss' magical traps on RAW?
