If there is one thing WWE likes particularly about stats, it is to jinx them. The saying goes all good things must come to an end. Streaks in WWE are no different.

The most revered streak in professional wrestling history - The Undertaker's legendary undefeated streak at WrestleMania - was no exception. At WrestleMania 30, WWE decided to pull the trigger and had Brock Lesnar defeat The Phenom at the Showcase of the Immortals.

Even though WWE is not advertising any streaks or records at the moment, it does not mean that there aren't any. Quite a few streaks are in the danger of being broken at this year's Elimination Chamber PPV. Some of them are for good, whereas others are for the worse. In this article, we will be taking a look at a few streaks that could be potentially broken at the event.

AJ Styles - as his nickname suggests - is a phenomenal wrestler. The 41-year-old is one of WWE's best performers at the moment. In an era where the business is more exposed than ever, Styles is one of the few babyfaces who gets cheered whenever he makes an appearance.

However, that does not mean he gets to headline PPVs - especially dual branded ones. Styles has not headlined a dual-branded PPV since Extreme Rules 2016, where he challenged Roman Reigns for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Every one of his five opponents has headlined at least one dual-branded PPV during this period.

Kofi Kingston and Samoa Joe were in the main event of 2019 Royal Rumble and the Greatest Royal Rumble. Jeff Hardy made it to the main event of 2019 Royal Rumble. Randy Orton even had a singles main event match against Brock Lesnar at Summerslam 2016. Daniel Bryan had a singles main event match against Lesnar at Survivor Series 2018.

However, AJ Styles did not headline any of the dual-branded PPVs after Extreme Rules.
