AJ Styles continued his impactful return to WWE with a hard-fought victory over Dominik Mysterio on Raw, despite repeated interference from Carlito. The win built on Styles’ momentum since his Royal Rumble 2025 return and subsequent move to the red brand.
The drama escalated after the match when Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker rushed through the crowd, looking to ambush Styles. The Phenomenal One’s quick reflexes allowed him to dodge the attack, causing Breakker to accidentally spear Mysterio instead. Styles capitalized on the chaos with a swift kick to Breakker’s head, sending the champion retreating from the ring.
The intense confrontation reached its peak as both men scrambled for the Intercontinental Championship, with Breakker managing to secure his title first. The heated exchange pointed toward a potential championship clash between the two competitors in the near future.
This encounter marked the second face-off between Styles and Breakker since The Phenomenal One’s return to Raw last week, where their initial meeting set the stage for this brewing rivalry.
