It is thought that this was done by design just because WWE didn't have anything for the Samoan Submission Machine at that time, but he could be about to step up to the WWE Championship match at The Biggest Party of the Summer.

Joe recently shared the following on his Instagram page, which has led to even more speculation that he is the star that is about the become the number one contender for the WWE Championship.

There have already been rumours about this match that claim that Styles will once again be able to defeat his challenger to retain a title that he has now held for more than nine months.

Joe is yet to win a Championship on the main roster after he was promoted at the beginning of last year and has been floating around for the past few months looking for a challenge. Given the fact that Styles has already defeated Shinsuke Nakamura, Rusev, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, which means that there aren't many stars left on the blue brand that haven't felt the force of the Styles Clash.
