What if WWE pitting Matt Riddle and AJ Styles against each other was a way to set up something bigger down the line?. Heck, what if Riddle even gets a second shot at the title after he finally shuts up his most vocal critic and shows fans more of what he can do?

The point here is that WWE has had these two Superstars cross paths and now have the option to bring it up at a later time, for another purpose. If nothing else, one of the best parts about storytelling is when a story come full circle, and the company definitely has a chance to achieve that here.

Where, when and how that all happens remains to be seen and depends on where the company is going with all this. All the parts are there to tell an underdog story - an underdog story that could be the start of something big for Matt Riddle and make his eventual title win all the more meaningful when it does happen.
