TWO WEEKS AGO SMACKDOWN LIVE: Aiden English scored the biggest win of his career when he defeated AJ Styles, earning himself an opportunity to compete in the Money in the Bank Ladder match.

INTERVIEW: Aiden English isn't angry at Dolph Ziggler for their loss against John Cena and Kane last week on SmackDown Live, he's just disappointed. If it was Aiden in the ring with Kane, he wouldn't have passed out from Kane's claw hold and Aiden would have dispatched the monster. However, Ziggler had to greedily hog the spotlight and ultimately denied Aiden of attaining another big victory over a major WWE Superstar like Kane or John Cena.

EARLIER TONIGHT: After having a heart-to-heart talk with SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon and making a convincing plea with the backing of an impassioned WWE Universe, AJ Styles was given a golden opportunity: “The Phenomenal One” would be added to the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match if Styles could defeat Aiden English tonight.
