WWE NO Mercy 2016,
Styles has quickly developed into the blue brand’s top heel and arguably its top overall performer while Ambrose is the newly minted main eventer trying to take the spot that Cena has occupied for more than a decade. Thus, the outcome of the match will have a monumental effect on the landscape of SmackDown, giving fans a very good indication of what we can expect to see on Tuesday nights moving forward.
Especially with Cena expected to miss “several months” to film Season Two of American Grit, the outcome of this No Mercy main event will likely either establish Ambrose or Styles as the guy in the absence of Cena. So, who should win this match, and how should the finish go down?
Let’s take a look at the four best possible finishes to the Triple Threat match for the WWE World title at No Mercy.
4. Ambrose Beats Cena To Regain The Title
One of the most interesting dynamics of this match is the beef between Ambrose and Cena, with both superstars acting quite heel-like during their rivalry so far, which has added a nice underlying layer to this story.
Ambrose, of course, beat Cena on SmackDown in a huge shocker a couple of weeks ago, and it’s been obvious that Cena’s loss has brought some realism into this feud, as Cena attempts to prove that he can still hang with newcomers to the main event picture like Ambrose and Styles. So, just imagine if Cena were to lose yet again to Ambrose at No Mercy.
This would set up one incredibly entertaining storyline where, after multiple clean losses to Ambrose and Styles, even more questions begin to arise about whether or not Cena still has “it” and if he’ll ever be able to tie Ric Flair’s record with his 16th world title win.
3. Styles Makes Ambrose Or Cena Tap Out
It was somewhat disappointing to see Styles win the WWE World Championship in cheap fashion at Backlash, but perhaps that can be remedied at No Mercy.
Cena and Ambrose are two superstars who most fans could never imagine actually tapping out to a lose a match. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to remember a time when Ambrose or Cena lost a match via submission, with Cena in particular being someone WWE protects carefully in that regard.
But if the goal of this Triple Threat match is to build up Styles as a credible champion, which is what it should be, then having him make either Cena or Ambrose tap out would do wonders for him, instantly establishing him as a champion who will be incredibly difficult to dethrone.
And with Kevin Owens playing the role of a more cowardly champion on Raw, SmackDown should rely on Styles as a stronger titleholder.
