RAW after MITB Preview: Reason for Edge’s return, AJ Styles to feud with former NXT Champion? (May 11, 2020)

#4 AJ Styles to reignite his rivalry with Aleister Black on RAW?

This feud will work out well for both the Superstars

AJ Styles has now suffered a loss in two consecutive WWE PPVs. After being ‘buried’ by The Undertaker at WrestleMania 36, ‘The Phenomenal One’ found redemption on RAW by winning the Last Chance Gauntlet Match to qualify for the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

At the PPV, he got close to the briefcase, but right at the end, it slipped from his hands and fell right into Otis’, who walked out of the WWE Headquarters with the coveted contract.

It is expected that an irked Styles will address that moment on tonight’s episode of RAW, but that could also be the beginning of something familiar. Prior to WrestleMania, Styles was engaged in a short feud with Aleister Black, and he was also the one who ended Black’s winning streak on RAW.

In their last encounter, both Superstars were involved in brutal altercations at several times during the Money in the Bank ladder match.

Given the fact that Styles’ allies are no longer in WWE, he is expected to pursue a Single’s run. Hence, he might set his sights on Black, who can hit back at Styles as the latter has no additional help on RAW. This feud has previously given us a glimpse of its potential, but this time around, both Superstars would look equal.

This storyline is bound to benefit both the Styles and Black as well as RAW, which is a long show and needs compelling booking to avoid being slow.
