Money in the Bank 2019 will finally see two of WWE's biggest stars clash over their World Championship. AJ Styles and Seth Rollins have never gone one-on-one in a WWE ring and both men have definitely had differing routes to get to where they are in WWE right now.

The last time Rollins took on Styles was back in 2006 when he was still known as Tyler Black on the Independent Circuit. In recent years, Rollins has been the fastest rising star on Monday Night Raw, whilst AJ Styles has had a lockdown on SmackDown Live, which is why these two stars didn't cross paths until the Superstar Shakeup following WrestleMania back in April.

Given the fact that Seth Rollins defeated Brock Lesnar for this title and is now expected to defend against him at Super Showdown in Saudi Arabia, the outcome of this match seems to already be confirmed, but there are many other elements that could become factors as part of tomorrow night's match.


#5. AJ Styles becomes Universal Champion

AJ Styles has had quite the prestigious career in the squared circle, he has amassed a number of Championships in that time and if he's able to finally lift the Universal Championship tomorrow night then he will become the first person to have held the WWE, TNA, IWGP and The Universal Championships.

Of course, Styles is a formidable opponent for anyone and he's a star that has proved his worth on a number of stages, which is why many of the WWE Universe believe that this could be his time and he could finally be about to make Money Night Raw the house that AJ Styles built, much like SmackDown Live was for more than a year.

#4. Will Gallows and Anderson help AJ become Champion?

Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson are back on Monday Night Raw alongside their former Club leader, but so far there have been no hints as to whether or not their paths will cross and they will help each other out like before.

Seth Rollins no longer has The Shield to protect him since Roman Reigns is over on SmackDown Live and Dean Ambrose left the company at the end of April, which means that Styles could show Rollins what it's like when you're attacked in a three-on-one situation.

This match is obviously going to feed through into SummerSlam, which means that the ending can't be completely clean. There has to be a hint to an exciting feud to come and The Club having AJ Styles back and him turning heel once again would be the perfect way for this to move forward.

#3. Money in the Bank cash-in

It's that time of the year again, eight men will battle it out to be the first one to climb a ladder and retrieve a briefcase so that the winner can then cash in on an unsuspecting Champion at any time in the next year.

Seth Rollins now has a huge target on his back and since have been three cash in's on the same night at Money in the Bank and Rollins was cashed in on back in 2016, he will be prepared for whoever it is that takes the contract to come out and try their luck after his match with Styles.

If a heel wins the match then it's likely that they could cash in on the same night, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin wouldn't think twice about cashing in and becoming Champion, which would add to a tense atmosphere following the main event.

Seth Rollins defeated Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, this was just the second time that the two stars had gone one-on-one and he took quite the beating before he was able to pin The Beast and become The Beast Slayer.

Rollins isn't going down without a fight, in the coming weeks there are reportedly plans for him to face Brock Lesnar in his rematch in Saudi Arabia before then stepping up to the challenge of Baron Corbin after The Lone Wolf pinned him last week on Raw.

It's a hard life being Champion, but Rollins was once on course to become the longest reigning WWE World Heavyweight Champion before an injury ended his reign back in 2015. The most likely outcome of this match is for Seth Rollins to retain his Championship, whether that's via disqualification or a clean finish.

#1. Brock Lesnar interferes and causes the disqualification

When Seth Rollins first stepped up to Brock Lesnar in the summer of 2015, he was beaten before he stepped in the ring and The Undertaker had to swoop in to save him from losing his Championship.

Four years have passed since then and Rollins has proved that he is a very different character right now and was able to defeat Lesnar all alone at WrestleMania last month, but The Beast hasn't been seen since.

Brock Lesnar wants his Championship back and will be coming for it in Saudi Arabia, but will he show up in Connecticut to ensure that Seth Rollins is the man he faces in The Middle East? This remains to be seen, but The Beast did make his presence known at Hell in a Cell last year, so he definitely has a reputation for interference.
