Cody Rhodes will be defending the Undisputed WWE Championship against AJ Styles at Clash at the Castle. This time, the match between the Georgia natives will be taking place under the “I Quit” stipulation. Having said that, babyfaces usually tend to emerge victorious in this scenario. However, if The Phenomenal One plays his cards right, he might walk out as a three-time WWE Champion.

The American Nightmare confirmed on his Instagram story that his mother will be traveling with him to Scotland. Therefore, it seems that she’ll also be attending the PLE, where she’ll watch her son battle it out with Styles. With The Good Brothers and Michin on his side, the OC leader can conjure up a plan to claim the world title.

Fans can expect the faction to use Mama Rhodes to force the ever-resistant Undisputed Champion to utter those two words. In fact, this could be similar to the “I Quit” match between Edge and Finn Balor, where The Judgment Day attacked the Rated-R Superstar’s wife, Beth Phoenix. Although Cody Rhodes just won the championship at WrestleMania, this would be a welcome shock result.

Moreover, it could easily pave the way for the third and final bout of a personal rivalry. Obviously, this would end with the former Intercontinental Champion winning his belt back. Needless to say, it will be interesting to see whether AJ Styles does resort to crossing the line or if Rhodes overcomes the odds and successfully walks out as the as the still-Undisputed Champion.
