What a night it was for AJ Styles on Smackdown LIVE. The Phenomenal One came in to vent some frustrations for not having a top tier WrestleMania opponent and ended up sending his boss’ head through a car window. I mean, we’ve all been there, right?
The head in question belonged to Smackdown Commissioner, Shane McMahon, whose only crime was showing up for work at the exact entrance AJ had been hiding at since the start of the show.

Why do wrestling authority figures show up late to their own show? They only have to work two to three hours a night. You’d think they could get there on time.
Anyhow, Shane did something we haven’t seen on WWE TV in a long time and that’s show blood. While the angle will surely be in black and white when it’s replayed next week, Shane O’ Mac had good ol’ fashioned wrestling blood running down his head as an independent wrestler dressed as a doctor told him that he should go to the hospital.
Ha, stupid pretend doctor! Wrestlers don’t ever go to the hospital. They’re too tough for that.
After Daniel Bryan fired AJ Styles for his action a battered Shane O’ made his way out to the ring during the tag team match (that had no business being in the main event slot) to announce that he would be AJ’s WrestleMania opponent.
