He will be making his comeback to moderate a promo segment between AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan. Expect things to get very heated.

The McMahons assumed control of both RAW and SmackDown Live on the RAW after TLC. Vince McMahon urged AJ Styles to unleash the animal in him shortly after, charging and firing the man up.
Styles ended up knocking Vince McMahon to the floor with a punch. Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles have been battling it out ever since, in the ring, up the ramp and even in the concession stands. Their feud has become incredibly personal.
The heart of the matter
WWE.com broke the news about McMahon making his big comeback. This is what he had to say:
Tensions between WWE Champion “The New” Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles have continued to escalate over the past several weeks, and now, with their WWE Title Match in sight, the two will meet face-to-face this Tuesday night with Mr. McMahon moderating.
The site even alluded to the tensions between Bryan and Styles in the said announcement. They even referred to Vince McMahon urging Styles to bring out the animal in him:
With both Superstars having attacked each other in arena concourses over consecutive weeks, animosity is running at an all-time high in this incredibly personal rivalry. And now, with Mr. McMahon moderating, who only a few weeks ago urged The Phenomenal One to bring out “the real” AJ Styles, will matters boil over just five nights before they square off at Royal Rumble?
