We're definitely not going to get a Seth Rollins return to close out Extreme Rules, nor will we see Finn Balor make his debut on the main roster. As for Styles, as nice as it would be to see him capture the WWE Championship, that outcome is pretty farfetched - so how will the company end the show differently than they did at Payback?

The answer is that, at long last, Anderson and Gallows will turn on AJ Styles. Styles will refuse their help during the title match, wanting to capture the belt himself, but he'll ultimately fall to Reigns. After that, his so-called friends will attack him, angry at Styles's rebuffing of their offer of help. That'll finally settle the issue - Styles is a face, and Anderson and Gallows will be secure as heels.

After that, the stage will be set for Balor to come up after his program with Joe is over. Meanwhile, "The Phenomenal One" will have to deal with the pain of having been turned on by Bullet Club twice in six months.
