AJ Styles made his return to WWE TV on this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown.
On Friday night’s edition of SmackDown, Styles made his return during the main event segment. This marked his first appearance since being taken out by Solo Sikoa in a backstage segment that took place in September.
Styles wound up making the save after Randy Orton and LA Knight were attacked by The Bloodline. He would eventually hit the “Phenomenal Forearm” on Roman Reigns.
As The Bloodline headed up the ramp, Styles turned heel and laid out LA Knight as Randy Orton looked on. Styles then walked past Reigns and The Bloodline as the show came to a close.
