#3 AJ Styles set to return on WWE RAW this week

AJ Styles and Omos will return on WWE RAW this week

WWE Superstar AJ Styles became a Grand Slam Champion at WrestleMania 37 when he teamed up with Omos and won the RAW Tag Team Championships. Surprisingly, he then went missing from the Red brand and didn’t make a single appearance for three weeks after the event. Styles is now set to return on RAW alongside Omos for his first tag team title defense.

As confirmed by WWE, Styles and Omos will defend their WWE RAW Tag Team Championships against Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. Both the teams were involved in a short feud leading up to WrestleMania 37 that mostly revolved around Styles and Omos’ lack of experience as a tag team. However, The Phenomenal One and his towering partner proved everyone wrong with their match-winning performance at the pay-per-view.
