#2 AJ Styles
AJ Styles and Matt Hardy have never crossed paths before. They are not even on the same roster. But Matt Hardy is in the process of reinventing himself, and the Woken gimmick can either make or break his legendary career. Thus, it is of paramount importance for Matt to be involved in meaningful and stellar feuds.
"The Phenomenal One" is at the peak of his game at the moment. He is a household name all over the world and is the best thing that has happened to the WWE in a long time. He delivered an instant classic against Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series. Styles thus proved to one and all that he can wrestle anyone and make it look good.
Therefore, a feud with him is exactly what Matt Hardy needs at this juncture to reestablish himself as a singles competitor. Matt Hardy does not need to win his bout against AJ Styles. But battling one of the best in-ring performers in the world will provide him the platform to showcase his broken abilities to the WWE Universe.
