One of the most popular suggestions being bandied about and one option WWE would have would be to enter AJ Styles into the upcoming Royal Rumble match. This immediately throws up two possibilities. The first of these would be to announce AJ ahead of time, in order to build up towards his debut. This allows WWE the opportunity to give the WWE Universe a glimpse of what he is capable of, and also time to prepare long-time fans for his imminent arrival. The other option is for AJ to be a surprise entrant, showing up without forewarning. This is by far the most romantic option, as many fans of the man (myself included) love the idea of the countdown clock, the buzzer going off and the reveal of AJ to a monster pop. The reality of this is that AJ Styles just might not have the name reach within the WWE Universe that we assume he does. As such, there is every chance that his surprise reveal in the Royal Rumble match would be a damp squib opening, putting this most talented of superstars on the back foot immediately. Introducing AJ in the Royal Rumble match is the bravest and potentially most exciting option. It is also the riskiest.
