WWE Title Match On Next Week’s SmackDown Live
In an odd turn of events, Shane McMahon took to Twitter today to announce that AJ Styles will challenge Jinder Mahal for the WWE World Title on next week’s episode of SmackDown Live.
Due to @JinderMahal vicious attack on @AJStylesOrg, he will defend the #WWEChampionship against AJ this Tues. in Manchester, UK on #SDLive.

The reason I say it is weird is because on Tuesday’s show, they announced that Rusev would face Styles for the final spot on the SmackDown Live Survivor Series team. So…this either means that match will be put off a week, Rusev will get the spot by default when AJ beats Jinder, or The Singh Brothers will stick their little noses in the title match and make everything pointless like they normally do.
Charlotte On Her Past Abusive Relationship
During an appearance on Lillian Garcia’s Chasing Glory show, Charlotte Flair spoke about being involved in an abusive relationship in her past.
“At that time, we were young, and he had family issues as well, and I was constantly trying to make up for those – but when, in reality, we were both in unhealthy situations. And I kept thinking, ‘Well maybe if I looked a certain way or acted a certain way, or if I did this better he wouldn’t do xyz.’ But it really had nothing to do with me, so I was continuing to make excuses. And when you’re in a codependent relationship like that, you’re listening to what the person says, but even though they do something else and say, ‘Oh, I’m sorry. It will never happen again,’ but that’s not really how it is if the behavior never changes.”
She also spoke of her anger over her brother Reid’s death.
“I got so frustrated towards the end. He was in Japan doing well before he passed. He asked me to promote something for him, and I didn’t want to because I was just angry at him for making mistakes, and I have a lot of guilt – if I had done things differently. But that’s my thing about the book. I was getting to write my letter to him, letting him know that what he wanted to do and become, I’m making sure happens. And I still haven’t really accepted that he’s gone…And I know it’s hard on my mom, for sure, hard on my mom that the only thing the world sees is her son dying of an overdose, instead of what a beautiful soul he was… So I think getting to write about him and what he meant to me in the book, meant a lot.”
