Cedric Alexander pinned AJ Styles last week, but he fell short of The Phenomenal One’s United States Championship on Sunday thanks to a quick, ruthless rally that stopped the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion in his tracks. But even though Styles wanted to teach Alexander a lesson, he might want to hope the lesson wasn’t learned too well. As Cedric made clear after the match, he has no intention of stopping his pursuit of the U.S. Title, and he has one thing going for him now that he didn’t before: He’s fought AJ Styles, and he knows what to expect. There’s a chance his next play for the title will look and end very different from the last.
