AJ Styles vs. Ricochet: B+

Fans wouldn't argue against more matches between Styles and Ricochet.

Just like when Ricochet faced Cesaro a few weeks ago on successive episodes of RAW, I don't think that many people were unhappy that he was facing AJ Styles in consecutive weeks. Some match-ups might seem dull or repetitive, but when two of the best and most innovative wrestlers of this generation are in the match, it's easy to watch multiple matches.

While the first meeting was the best, this was still a good contest. Ricochet controlled a good deal of the action and Styles used his aggression throughout the match to help solidify his heel turn. It was good that there was minimal outside interference from Gallows and Anderson.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Anderson didn't interfere but pointed out to the referee that Styles' leg was under the rope. But when Gallows interfered in the closing of the match, it was clearly used as the route for Styles to both win and to continue upping his heel profile. The Styles Clash off of the top rope is always a sight to see, so using it to put away Ricochet was the way to go.
