We all know that it is going to be Shane but is there anyone who you can picture that is the current WWE( and even NXT ) that should fight Styles at this year WM?
IMO and i know that this has happened alot, But I would want to see him fight Cena again. Those two work the best together and you can really make a great fight package out of all the things they have been doing to one another for the past few months.
Also, since cena is more than likely going to leave again after WM, let styles take the win and then styles can brag more about how he beat John cena at two of the biggest wrestling events in WWE...
Re: Who would you rather see styles fight at Wrestlemania 33?
It should have been AJ vs Orton for the title. They could have even kept the Wyatt Angle going with Orton still being a Wyatt.
In any case AJ vs Orton would probably have been match of the night, and still accomplished the story of AJ being sent off to RAW.
Another scenario is that AJ could face Nakamura. Teasing AJ vs Shane up until the event. Run an injury Angle where AJ takes Shane out a week before the event. Shane comes out to the ring at Mania, announces they he tried his best to recover but won't be able to compete. Then he brings out Nakamura.
The first AJ vs Nakamura match was Awesome. I'd bet on AJ vs Nakamura 2 being at least just as good. That crowd will love it, and it will be great momentum for a debuting Nakamura.
But yeah other than that there really is no one else big enough for AJ to fight.

aggh how cool would that be, (the nakamura surprise AT WM33...) would fucking be a WM moment for the ages and the match that follows would guarantee to deliver.

Nakamura vs Styles at a Wrestlemania would be amazing. Unfortunately there would'nt be enough build up this year so it'd probably flop with casuals. Same with Styles V Zayne

BUt what about that feud wih Bobby Rhood and Nakamura? NXT made that feel like it has been going on for longer than it has before they fought for the NXT title..I think with the right packaging and if Nakamura debuts like on the next smackdown and interferes with Styles match with Harper and then they get a few good promos in and a brawl out of no where and boom...Feud for mania..
Also for a bit more in the package, Add the time when they did fight at wrestling kingdom and just work off of that as Styles just wanting to even the score with Nakamura.
Re: Who would you rather see styles fight at Wrestlemania 33?
Nakamura vs Styles would be my first choice. I would save Styles vs Balor for later. You want Omega, Young Bucks and Adam Cole ready to debut at that time. The Club sides with Balor forming a heel Club. Styles face turn, Bucks and Adam Cole side with Styles. Omega is the tweener.
Would be the best television WWE has put on in a decade.
Literally anyone else but Shane. I love Shane, but Styles deserves a 1 on 1 match at Mania. Especially after carrying Smackdown for the better part of the year.
Samoa Joe or Orton would have been my picks. Like someone said, Flying Forearm into an RKO. :banderas
Most people have already said the obvious answers.
If it was up to me... Balor (seems like his return is inevitable) & Styles would be awesome (potential MotN candidate). WWE could mention NJPW, Bullet Club, etc. and the story/feud could write itself. :aj3 Just leave them both in the ring with 20-25 minutes and we could witness history for us hardcore fans.
Besides Balor... Rollins, Joe, Zayn, Nakamura, Cena, or Orton would all be fine with me.
The Undertaker. If you gotta have 'Taker fighting at WM, then it might as well be with someone that could get a somewhat decent match out of him, and there's none better at that than AJ Styles.
Wyatt, but were not gonna get that because Vince is gay.
