#4 AJ Styles should retain the WWE Championship
The Jinder Mahal experiment was a bold step, for what it was. WWE must be commended for taking such a major decision and running with it for six months. In our opinion, however, the Championship is around the waist of the rightful SmackDown Live champion.
AJ Styles should remain the WWE Champion for the foreseeable future. He gets a massive babyface reaction from the WWE Universe, all of whom are invested in his run and his matches. Putting the belt around Jinder Mahal's waist would be a step back, in our estimation.
Styles could move on to a new opponent, following the Mahal feud and still be the face of the SmackDown Live brand. Mahal has improved tenfold as champion, but is still not in the same league as AJ Styles, honestly.
Mahal can have some interesting feuds in the mid card, going forward. And that may be the best thing for him. Slow and steady wins the race.
