Top WWE Smackdown Star Teases Babyface Turn

As seen on WWE Smackdown Live tonight, AJ Styles teased turning babyface after his in-ring segment with Shane McMahon. You can watch the segment in the video below.

Styles ended the segment by saying that he came down to the ring for a reason, and that was to shake Shane McMahon’s hand. Styles then teased punching Shane, but then smiled and gave Shane a nod of props. Shane gave Styles a fist bump to the chest, and the segment ended with a show of respect between the WrestleMania opponents.
