Just when it looked like the road was clear to see the WWE dream match between AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura at WrestleMania 34, a potential injury has thrown their entire match into doubt.

We are now a little under three weeks away from the Grandest Stage of Them All and many fans were rightfully expecting the WWE Championship match between The Phenomenal One and The King of Strong Style to not only main event the show, but to also steal it.

DREAM MATCH

Last week, it was believed that WWE ran an injury angle during a live event to keep fans invested in the whole storyline. However, it’s now been revealed that Styles is actually dealing with an injury and it’s why he was backstage at Monday Night RAW this week, so he could get looked over by medical staff, per PWInsider.

According to Ringside News, Meltzer said: “The only update is that he was getting evaluated this afternoon [Monday]. He was in Dallas and I don’t know what happened from there, I heard nothing other than it was happening. I didn’t even know the injury. I know that the injury in The Garden - they did a knee injury angle, so that may mean it could be a knee injury.

INJURY

“The severity of it - I just think it’s interesting how the length they have gone to keep it quiet. It’s more that nobody knew. We may hear something tomorrow but whatever it is, I don’t think they want it out.

“I can’t believe that it’s that minor because I believe if it was minor, we would be told, “It’s minor, it’s nothing to worry about,” and we certainly have not been told that.

“Is ‘Mania threatening? Look, we are only three weeks away from ‘Mania so obviously, if there is any chance - it could be a lot of different things. I think if there is any chance he can do ‘Mania and postpone if he’s going to need something done, I think that he will do that.

“I think that he wants that match but that that may not be a possibility, or maybe if it’s that serious.’Mania is a big payday. Essentially, I like to think we will know more tomorrow.”

Based on the quotes provided by Ringside News, it does seem like WWE might be sweating now with time running out. Obviously, this all depends on what the medical team finds when they evaluated Styles, and whether or not it has been considered serious or minor.

While fans now have to play the waiting game, all will be made more clear as we head towards the final few episodes of SmackDown LIVE before WrestleMania on April 8.
