10 New Directions After WWE Draft 2016
2. Orton Vs Styles
With all this talk of titles on the Raw brand, what does
that leave for SmackDown to look forward to?
Quite a lot, actually, considering Shane and Daniel Bryan’s picks. There’s a whole host of talent at the top of that roster, but if WWE house show adverts are any indication—which more often than not they are—one of the programmes we could be set for is a Randy Orton vs. AJ Styles rivalry.
This would of course be something new for SmackDown, for the WWE, and for professional wrestling as a whole, as Orton and Styles have never before stepped foot in a ring with each other. On top of that newness, there’s the added bonus that these are two of the company’s very best workers and two of the industry's very biggest names.
As far as feuds go that we’d like to see, this one ticks all the boxes.
And just imagine the RKO reversals we might see, given AJ’s penchant for springboards…
