5 blockbuster storylines for The Club after AJ Styles' heel turn

#3 Finn Balor vows to destroy the Club

It's no secret that the Club is one of the most popular factions in recent memory. The group was formed by Prince Devitt aka Finn Balor in NJPW. Balor was later replaced by AJ Styles, when the former left the company in 2014.

The storyline writes itself here! Balor gets increasingly worried about what the Club has turned into, and promises to destroy the faction before it grows further and eats away the company from within.

This results in Balor forming an alliance with a string of wrestlers, and challenging the Club to a multi-man match, preferably at Survivor Series, with the losing team getting disbanded for good. The match would end with Balor emerging the victor, snapping AJ further. The two could go at each other for months to come, culminating in a match at WrestleMania 36.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
