WWE Battleground 2017: 5 possible endings for AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens
WWE Battleground 2017 is almost upon us and it seems like the latest Smackdown Live pay-per-view has flown under the radar a little bit. None of the usual excitement that accompanies a pay per view has been present in the build up to final big WWE show before WWE Summerslam 2017.
While a lot of that can be attributed to the fact that the main event and WWE Championship picture has been lacklustre over the past few months with Jinder Mahal and Randy Orton doing their boring old thing week after week, there is one match which has been garnering a lot of buzz.
AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens for the WWE United States Championship. While the match was expected for a while with AJ winning the #1 Contender Battle Royal on an episode of Smackdown Live a few weeks back, things took an unexpected turn when The Phenomenal One beat The Prizefighter on a Madison Square Garden House Show for the belt.
So, now we have a case of roles being reversed as Styles defends the US Title against KO and we're here to see how this match could end.
So, without any further ado, here are 5 possible endings for the WWE United States Championship match between AJ Styles and Kevin Owens at WWE Battleground 2017:
#5 AJ Styles wins dirty
This would be an unexpected end to the match for sure. The thing about AJ Styles is that he is so damn good, there is no way he's going to be booed. Even his heel run through 2016 and the first quarter of 2017 saw him cheered at every arena that he performed at.
Hence it came as little surprise when he was turned face following WWE Wrestlemania 33. But, at the same time, AJ exists in this grey area where he doesn't really behave like a typical babyface. He's still arrogant and cocky and does things his own way.
While he has refrained from using overly dirty tactics to pick up victories, we could see him channel that inner villain in order to get one over on someone as devious as Kevin Owens.
