AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura probably wasn't the 5* classic some fans anticipated but it was one of the best matches on the card and it wrapped up in a very unexpected way when Styles countered a Kinshasa into the Styles Clash to retain the WWE Championship. It's pretty unheard of for a Royal Rumble match winner to lose at WrestleMania but there was a reason for it!
After Styles and Nakamura shared an embrace, the latter presented the winner with his title...and then hit him with a low blow! As a result, Nakamura has made a full-blown heel turn and based on the way he was acting as he left the arena, it's going to suit the King of Strong Style down to the ground.
Some fans will undoubtedly be furious that Nakamura lost but a months long programme between these two has now been set up and WWE has just gained a potentially great heel to boot. Throw in the fact that this bout was arguably considerably better than the actual main event and it's fair to say we got out $9.99s worth. Oh, and SmackDown Live should be well worth tuning into on Tuesday...
