LONDON — The Miz and Maryse kicked off SmackDown at London’s O2 Arena by welcoming special guest AJ Styles onto “Miz TV.”

The A-Lister wasted little time stirring the pot of controversy. After highlighting The Phenomenal One’s longstanding alliance with Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson during their days in Japan, he proceeded to grill the No. 1 contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship about whether he, in any way, influenced his cohorts to attack Roman Reigns on Raw. In response, Styles not only denied involvement, but also made it very clear that he does not need Gallows and Anderson’s help in his World Title Match against The Big Dog at WWE Payback.

When Miz and Maryse decided to further pushed their guest, attempting to adapt various movie quotes to fit their points — along with a tad too much PDA — Styles knocked The Awesome One to the canvas.

Later, it was announced that Miz and Styles would square off one-on-one on SmackDown.
