This week, Matt Riddle is set to appear in a special segment during which he will be interviewed by Michael Cole. Now, for anyone who has watched WWE for a long time, you know that this is not going to go according to the plan.
It is expected that this special interview segment will be the key to setting up a title match between Riddle and AJ Styles at WWE's upcoming PPV, Extreme Rules: The Horror Show.
It is important to note that Riddle has already defeated Styles in a match on the night he made his SmackDown debut. Hence, it will be fair for him to claim a shot at Styles' title.
While the chances of AJ Styles retaining his title are higher, it is possible that WWE will have him use a low blow or some other wicked tactic to ensure the victory.
This will help them in keeping the title on Styles' shoulders while also protecting Riddle. However, even if Matt Riddle ends up losing clean against AJ Styles, it will hardly affect his overall credibility on SmackDown. Matt Riddle could also feud with Baron Corbin next on SmackDown.
