8. WWE World Title Match Set For SmackDown Live
James Ellsworth will get his WWE World Championship match on this week’s episode of SmackDown Live against “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles.
This match was scheduled to take place last week on SmackDown Live, but Styles wasn’t cleared to wrestle as he suffered a minor ankle injury at TLC 2016.
Many people thought that Styles suffered the ankle injury when he did the springboard 450 splash through a table on Dean Ambrose at TLC 2016, but that’s not the case. Below is a GIF of Styles doing the 450 splash at TLC 2016:

Styles suffered the injury when he jumped from the top rope for a back flip and landed on his feet and hurt his ankle.
Styles has now been cleared to wrestle and below is the promo for his match against Ellsworth:
