Nakamura says there is no Rusev Day on his calendar and he just wants to get in line for the WWE United States Title because he's not done with it.

- As noted, AJ Styles won a Fatal 5 Way main event on this week's SmackDown to earn a shot at WWE Champion Daniel Bryan at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. WWE has a new poll asking fans if the "real" AJ can defeat the "new" Daniel. As of this writing, 70% voted, "Yes. Styles' new aggression is the perfect counter to Bryan's tactics." The rest went with, "No. Bryan's underhanded offense will stop The Phenomenal One."

- WWE's Mustafa Ali took to Twitter this week and gave props to former Impact Wrestling X Division Champion DJZ, just one day before DJZ announced his Impact departure.

Recalling his win over DJZ at EVOLVE 115 back in November, Ali wrote, "2018 was wild. I got to wrestle a close friend and training partner @IAmDJZ at an @WWNEVOLVE show a week before making my PPV debut at #SurvivorSeries Don't sleep on Z."
