AJ Styles Traded To WWE SmackDown For Future RAW Pick
AJ Styles is once again a member of the WWE SmackDown roster.
It was announced during tonight's SmackDown on FOX that AJ had been traded from RAW to SmackDown for a future trade or pick.
It was announced last week that AJ would be competing in the tournament for the vacant WWE Intercontinental Title, but as a member of the RAW roster, and the only red brand Superstar to be in the tournament. WWE then announced on tonight's show that Styles was traded to the blue brand.
AJ defeated Shinsuke Nakamura in tonight's first round tournament match. He will face Elias in a second round tournament match on next Friday's SmackDown.
Below are a few shots from AJ's return to SmackDown on tonight's show:
