Maybe it would have been a different story had Styles and Lynch been on the card
AJ Styles gets a rousing ovation wherever he performs around the world. As does Becky Lynch, who's grown to become the most popular WWE performer today. Neither of the superstars was booked to be on the Survivor Series card. As a result, the entire lineup felt a little depleted overall.

Had they been on the card, it could have been a different story. I see Styles defeating the Beast, had they clashed for a second time. I see Lynch coming out on top in her clash against Rowdy Ronda Rousey.
Ultimately, the reason for the squash could have just been to provide a cliffhanger and make fans tune in to the show. How will SmackDown Live deal with the consequences of this rather embarrassing performance?
We find out on Tuesday night!
