AJ Styles Returns On 12/15 WWE SmackDown, Goes After Bloodline And LA Knight
AJ Styles is back.
AJ Styles made his return on the December 15 episode of WWE SmackDown, saving Randy Orton and LA Knight in the closing segment.
Knight and Orton were being decimated by The Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, & Jimmy Uso) after the main event when AJ’s music hit. AJ hit a phenomenal forearm on Reigns and sent the Bloodline retreating.
Styles wasn’t just after the Bloodline though, attacking LA Knight before walking past the Bloodline and going up the ramp.

Orton defeated Jimmy in the main event. Sikoa and Knight got involved in the bout, Reigns confronted Orton after the match, leading to a brawl with the Bloodline having the numbers advantage before Styles arrived.
Styles had been off television since the September 22 episode of WWE SmackDown when he was taken out backstage by Solo Sikoa.
