4. James Ellsworth To Get A Shot At The WWE World Championship This Tuesday Night
During the post-TLC 2016 edition of Talking Smack, it was announced that James Ellsworth will face AJ Styles for the WWE World Championship in the main event of this week’s SmackDown Live. Below is what WWE posted:
James Ellsworth stunned the WWE Universe at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs when he emerged from nowhere to betray his friend, Dean Ambrose, and pave the way for AJ Styles to retain his title in an absolutely brutal TLC Match on the award-winning WWE Network.
Explaining his actions on WWE Talking Smack afterward, Ellsworth went a step further by announcing that he will redeem his earned WWE World Title Match against “The Face that Runs the Place” this Tuesday night on SmackDown LIVE.
Though Ellsworth does technically hold three victories over Styles, it’s safe to say that Ambrose won’t be helping him this time around. In fact, considering that The Phenomenal One hates him and The Lunatic Fringe will be out for retribution, the chinless No. 1 contender’s best strategy for the imminent title showdown had better include a lot of running.
