Imagine seeing CM Punk and AJ Styles team up in the ring! That's exactly what happened at a recent WWE Live event, and the results are in. But before we dive into the details, let's acknowledge the elephant in the room: Punk's return has been anything but smooth sailing. This Brussels show offered a glimpse of what could be, a dream team in action.
On January 20th, WWE brought its high-octane energy to the Forest National in Brussels, Belgium, for a live event that had fans buzzing. Thanks to Wrestling Bodyslam (check out their tweet here: https://x.com/WrestleBodyslam/status/2013728322090344801?s=20), we've got a rundown of all the matches.
Here's the full scoop from WWE Live in Brussels:
- IYO SKY proved her dominance, defeating Raquel Rodriguez in what was likely a hard-hitting encounter. IYO SKY is a force to be reckoned with, and Raquel Rodriguez is always a tough opponent.
- The high-flying Dragon Lee outmaneuvered Xavier Woods, securing a victory in a match that undoubtedly showcased their incredible athleticism. Dragon Lee's agility is a sight to behold!
- Maxxine Dupri surprised many by overcoming Roxanne Perez. This could be a sign that Maxxine is being positioned for bigger things.
- Now, for the main event everyone's talking about: CM Punk & AJ Styles joined forces to take down The Vision, comprised of Bronson Reed & Bron Breakker. This pairing is interesting, considering the history and styles involved. It begs the question: Is this a one-off, or could we see more of this unlikely alliance? But here's where it gets controversial... Some fans might argue that Punk's presence overshadows rising stars like Reed and Breakker. Is the focus too much on the returning veteran?
- Liv Morgan continued her momentum, defeating Lyra Valkyria in a match that likely featured Morgan's signature resilience.
- Gunther, the Ring General, asserted his authority by defeating Jey Uso. Gunther's reign of dominance continues, and this victory further cements his status as a top contender.
- In the Undisputed WWE Championship match, Cody Rhodes retained his title against Drew McIntyre. And this is the part most people miss... The victory came via disqualification (DQ). This means McIntyre technically didn't lose the title, leaving the door open for a rematch and further fueling their intense rivalry. Was this a clever move to keep the feud going, or a disappointing finish for the fans in attendance?
