And it was there that The Phenomenal One overcame Mahal and the Singh brothers to regain the belt just weeks away from the big PPV.

Mahal was billed to be facing Universal title holder Lesnar in a champion vs champion match at Survivor Series.

But now it looks like a match the fans have been waiting for is on the card with Styles' unexpected win.

Styles has yet to face The Beast since joining the company at last year's Royal Rumble.

And the fight will excite fans more with many complaining at the lack on in-ring skill Mahal possesses and his aimless championship reign.

But there is also the chance WWE could throw another curveball at the fans and have Styles drop the belt next week on SmackDown Live.

WWE are in desperate need to sell the show to the masses after last year's return of Goldberg, who would go on to squash Lesnar.
