AJ Styles beat Ricochet in a non-title match a couple weeks ago, and then a rematch saw some shenanigans before Ricochet got his win back. You know what that means!

Rubber match!

Indeed, WWE officially announced today that Styles will challenge Ricochet for the United States at the upcoming Extreme Rules pay-per-view (PPV) scheduled for this Sun., July 14, 2019, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
