12 HUGE WWE Money In The Bank 2019 Predictions You Need To Know

3. Seth Rollins Vs. AJ Styles

Bray Wyatt
WWE

Hold on. Has this programme been...good?!

Pardon your writer's shock for a second, but was it really unreasonable to think two men famed for once having amazing matches rather than still having them wouldn't really be able to deliver on people's expectations?

We have, after all, been here before.

AJ Styles, for all the many good days he's had in WWE, has saved his disappointments for when they've hurt the most. Nightmare "dream" matches with Shinsuke Nakamura, never once even finding the potential let alone reaching it in a feud with Kevin Owens, and an entire summer story with Samoa Joe that never remotely reached the heights of their under-told tales in TNA.

Rollins, meanwhile, became everything he promised to on Raw through forces of work ethic and will rather than the electric form that once separated him from the pack.

Their simplistic and surprisingly underwritten story has, thankfully, scaled both men back to brass tacks. Who is the better man exactly? And how have WWE managed to keep the story pretty much exclusively about that battle with only baby steps taken by 'The Phenomenal One' into the heel corner for the good of the cause?

If only this were one match, instead of merely the first one.

Winner - Seth Rollins
