– A new Jim Ross blog has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com and below is what JR had to say on the possibility of AJ Styles vs Shawn Michaels at WWE Royal Rumble next year:
“The odds of Shawn Michaels wrestling at the Royal Rumble vs AJ Styles is a definite long shot as HBK has stressed to me on multiple occasions including the Ross Report podcast that he’s done with in ring activities in the wrestling biz. However, Shawn is a ‘company man’ and if WWE really needed a main event that could move a large amount of tickets in San Antonio at the Alamo Dome, I think that HBK would consider the company’s request.
“Without question, a Michaels vs Styles match in San Antonio at the Royal Rumble would be coveted by all involved if it were to occur. I’d realistically put the odds of this main event happening at less than 50-50 but I’d love to be wrong on this one.”
– The hot topic going into Sunday’s WWE Hell In a Cell pay-per-view in Boston is which of the “triple main events” will actually close the show. You can read the latest on Womens-Wrestling.Com.
