Styles locks in the Calf Crusher and Miz taps out. After the match Chris Jericho comes into the ring and congratulates AJ on his victory. Jericho is not surprise by how good he is. Jericho wants to know if Styles is great. Does Styles has what it takes to become WWE Champion or even having our own WWE Network Show? Does Styles has what it takes to beat him twice. Jericho challenge Styles to a rematch for next week’s SmackDown. Jericho tells Styles to prove it. Styles agrees to the match.

 An excellent match between AJ and The Miz on Smackdown. We tend to forget how good The Miz can be in the ring at times because it is so rare to see him in a match for more than 5 minutes. The tempo and the smooth transitions between moves were really good to see from him and AJ’s execution is second to none. With Chris Jericho challenging AJ Styles, one can only imagine a third and final match will take place at WWE Fastlane. After that, who the hell knows where both men go from there? Jericho could potentially be a wild card for a match against The Undertaker, while I want AJ vs. Ambrose. AJ Styles needs gold sooner rather than later and this could be a great opportunity for him and a possible anti- Ambrose character.
