The event, which took place on May 4 at the LDLC Arena in Lyon, France, saw Rhodes defend his Undisputed WWE Title against AJ Styles in a thrilling main event.
The match, which lasted nearly 28 minutes, had the crowd on the edge of their seats as the two superstars engaged in a back-and-forth battle. In the end, it was Rhodes who emerged victorious, hitting Styles with a devastating Cross Rhodes to retain his title. The victory marked Rhodes’ first successful televised defense of the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Following the event, Triple H shared a backstage photo with Rhodes on Instagram, congratulating him on his well-deserved win. The post was a testament to the respect and camaraderie that exists among WWE superstars, and it sent a clear message that the WWE universe is behind Rhodes as he continues to reign as champion.
In a post-show press conference, Rhodes expressed his desire to face Styles again in the future, citing the injury he suffered at the hands of The Phenomenal One during their title match. It seems that Rhodes is seeking revenge against Styles, who targeted his shoulder during the match.
This development has sparked speculation about whether the two superstars will continue their rivalry in the coming weeks or if a new challenger will emerge to take on Rhodes for the gold.
