#3 Keeping him out of the WWE Title mix
We recently reported rumours suggesting that John Cena would be defeating Rusev in the Flag Match at Battleground, and would be moving on to another opponent thereafter. This opponent could very well be Jinder Mahal, a man that Super Cena has never faced for the title, before this.
WWE would obviously want Styles in an important spot, heading into Summerslam this year, but they may want him kept away from the WWE Championship picture, at least at this point. The big story would be Cena chasing his 17th championship and vanquishing the wicked foreign heel. AJ Styles is definitely due for another title run, but not anytime right now.
