AJ Styles will return to the ring on the December 22 episode of WWE SmackDown.
“The Phenomenal One” made his return on the December 15 episode of SmackDown, as he took the fight to The Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, and Jimmy Uso). He also dropped LA Knight, leading some fans to question Styles’ new attitude.
WWE announced that AJ Styles will face Solo Sikoa in a singles match on Friday night. This will mark Styles’ first match since the September 15 episode of WWE SmackDown.
Styles was previously written off WWE programming when The Bloodline attacked him on the September 22 episode of SmackDown.
