Top SmackDown rumors: Backstage heat on Superstar for controversial comments; Veteran sacked over 'inappropriate remarks'; Update on Bray Wyatt's future (5th June)
AJ Styles will be taking on Daniel Bryan in the finals of the Intercontinental Championship tournament next week. The two men have made it to the finals of the tournament after former IC Champion Sami Zayn opted to not participate in tapings owing to the COVID-19 scare.
As per Cageside Seats (via Fightful), the two men managed to pump up the audience with their performance and the match was 'unbelievable'.
Sources told Fightful that AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan’s match for the Intercontinental title (airing Fri., June 12 but filmed last Tuesday) “was ‘unbelievable’ and legitimately pumped up a very tired NXT PC crowd that was there to cheer."

Daniel Bryan is a former IC Champion himself, although it will be the first time The Phenomenal One becomes IC Champion if he manages to win the tournament.
Styles and Bryan are fan-favorites and considered two of the best in-ring athletes WWE has to offer today. The match between the two has reportedly lived up to potential and it will be great to see what 'unbelievable' things the two men did.
