AJ Styles came out on this week’s episode of SmackDown and cut a promo on Daniel Bryan. However, he was interrupted by none other than the Original Bro Matt Riddle.
Riddle told Styles that he is the “Bro Who Runs The Show” and started a fight with him. This turned into a singles non-title match between Riddle and Styles.

Riddle had a great showing against Styles in his debut match on the Blue Brand. The two men tried to one-up each other throughout the match in a great opening bout.
However, mid-match Styles went outside the ring to confront Daniel Bryan and then came back into the ring only to get caught into a Bro Derek by Riddle. The debuting Riddle then successfully pinned the Intercontinental Champion in his first night on the Blue Show.

We reported earlier that Riddle has been accused of sexual misconduct by an indie wrestler. However, SmackDown was pre-taped so the issue didn’t hinder his debut.
