AJ Styles vs Nakamura, Main Event, WrestleMania 33, for the WWE championship, 45 minute match, with both wrestlers given the green light to just go out there and put on the greatest Mania main event of all time! Nakamura wins the Royal Rumble, the WWE championship somehow gets vacated the night after the Rumble, a tournament begins to see who will challenge Nakamura, FastLane main event is Styles v Finn Balor, Styles wins, then beats Nakamura at Mania to become WWE champion. What a story that would be! Shame Vince wouldn't see the money in that.

[@erikmunoz55]

love it but Styles vs Rollins at mania 33 is what I want to main event!

[@chazzyl9874]

That is one of the best booking ideas I have ever seen. Mind if I spread this else where?

[@MatthewCaligari]

+Alien Ouy It's Vince living vicariously through muscle freaks, zero wrestling talent which clearly doesn't matter to Vince.

[@MatthewCaligari]

Erik Munoz That would also be a 5 star match.

AJ is in WWE now, but his best matches of his career will be from Japan, & he's had classics in TNA & ROH.

[@shadeslimmy8311]

Him vs Joe vs Daniels. The GOAT

[@Jin_923]

One day AJ is gonna retire and become the next Head Coach for NXT.

[@nudewing8039]

[@CooJoe05]

AJ should open a second GYM for WWE in his area of the country. He deserves it

[@PtolemyJones]

AJ Styles was almost enough to get me to get the WWE TV channel, but I refuse to spend money for racist organizations.

[@danielbytschkow1954]

+PtolemyJones they arent racist m8?

[@Knicks518]

They are a little racist. When's the last time a black guy one the title. Vince even called booker t a nigga lol

[@TheAmpharosFreak]

+New Media Daily booker t allowed it. The new day are the biggest thing in the company, are one of the only people to have creative control over their gimmick. And have been tag team champs for a hell of a long time. The Rock is half black and was one of their biggest draws. They aren't racist, they just don't have many main event level black people. That's not the company's fault.

[@PtolemyJones]

+The Ampharos Freak I never said they were unwilling to profit off black wrestlers, making money off of black, Hispanic and Asian sweat is a big part of racist tradition but let one black guy touch Vince in a playful fashion and the first reaction was to fire him. it took a lot of convincing to bring the punishment down to sixty f-ing days...

[@Knicks518]

+PtolemyJones he goes suspended, not fired.
