The title reign of AJ Styles as WWE Champion has continued and the era of him being the top star on the blue brand remains.
AJ Styles was able to beat Samoa Joe to successfully retain the WWE Title at Saturday’s (October 6, 2018) WWE Super Show-Down pay-per-view event at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in Melbourne, Australia on the WWE Network. This marks yet another win for Styles over Joe in a top match on WWE PPV.
Styles has held the title for over 300 days after winning it from Jinder Mahal on an episode of SmackDown Live in November of last year in Manchester, England, which started his second reign as WWE Champion.
It will be interesting to see if this feud will continue as it appeared to be the final match in this rivalry. However, WWE could always keep it going and book them in another match, which could come as soon as the next main roster pay-per-view event for the company, which is Crown Jewel
The WWE Crown Jewel pay-per-view event takes place on November 2nd, 2018 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia at the King Fahd International Stadium and will air on the WWE Network. It’s possible that WWE books this rematch at Survivor Series that also takes place in November instead.
