In theory, WrestleMania is all about WWE putting together the best possible card each year to put on a series of fantastic matches designed to end enticing feuds. There would be no problem with AJ Styles and Chris Jericho battling it out at the Show of Shows except it has already been done. Three times.

It's clear that Chris Jericho's return to the WWE was a ploy to help put AJ Styles over with a wider audience, and the company deserves kudos for managing to do just that. The problem is that we have reached the point where neither party can benefit from the series continuing.

AJ Styles officially challenging Chris Jericho to an emotionless crowd reaction on the latest episode of Raw is clear proof that the audience has lost interest, and you can't blame them.

The two will undoubtedly put on a great display of wrestling yet again in their WrestleMania match, but it will feel like an exhibition now that the story has already been told. Alternatively, the feud should have started a month later with WrestleMania 32 acting as the deciding contest.

The third match in the series at Fastlane, won by AJ Styles, should have marked the end of this particular rivalry, as the pair have little more they can do together. It was an enjoyable story, but it's over - WWE is flogging a dead horse with a stick and it's infuriating.
