AJ Styles Vs. Karrion Kross Will Take Place (Again) Next Week On WWE SmackDown

The feud between AJ Styles and Karrion Kross is continuing, with the pair already having three televised matches against each other thus far in a variety of both singles and mixed tag action. After Kross soundly defeated The O.C's Karl Anderson last week, another rematch between Kross and Styles has been scheduled for next week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown on August 11th.

The pair will also meet inside the Slim Jim Battle Royal at SummerSlam, with both men looking to emerge victorious at the premium live event. Other competitors include the likes of LA Knight, Sheamus, Tommaso Ciampa, Shinsuke Nakamura, The Miz, and several more.

Next week’s show will also host the United States Championship match between the champion Austin Theory and the number one contender Santos Escobar of the Latino World Order. Escobar emerged victorious in a small tournament, outlasting AJ Styles, Butch, and Grayson Waller in a fatal four way match, before picking up the win over an injured Rey Mysterio last week to score his place in the title match.
