5 Possible challengers for new WWE Champion Drew McIntyre's title

#3. AJ Styles

AJ Styles could be the perfect fit for a rivalry with Drew

AJ Styles may seem the furthest possible candidate for a crack at the WWE Championship right now, but, in my opinion, that's precisely why he should be considered for that very storyline.

The Undertaker comprehensively and decisively beat him at WrestleMania 36 in the first-ever Boneyard Match. However, there's little doubting the credentials of the Phenomenal One, who is still one of WWE's most talented in-ring performers.

I wrote recently about the fact I felt Styles was about to challenge for and possibly win the WWE title again, and the events of both Saturday and Sunday have only served to compound that theory in my mind.

Styles rose from relative mid-card obscurity to win the WWE title from Jinder Mahal in 2016, and him defeating McIntyre would indeed be springing another surprise.

I don't think Styles needs to win the gold - rather that he should just be in the title picture. His in-ring style would be the ideal contrast to that of McIntyre, and it's a match I'm sure plenty of fans would be keen to see
