Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will put the title on the line against AJ Stlyes at Backlash: France, in what'll be a first-time showdown between the two.
Styles became the number one contender for the title on the April 19, episode of WWE SmackDown with a victory over LA Knight. The previous week, Styles had qualified for the number one contenders match by winning a triple threat that included Kevin Owens and Rey Mysterio.

Rhodes didn't appear in person during WWE SmackDown as he has been in the UK as part of his first overseas tour as Undisputed WWE Champion. In a video promo from London's O2 Arena, Rhodes spoke about Styles and dubbed him the modern-day 'Excellence of Execution.' Rhodes added that his fellow 'Georgia Boy' rarely misses, but he doesn't miss either and he's looking forward to the showdown in Lyon, France.

Despite the lengthy careers of both men, this'll be the first time that Rhodes and Styles face off in singles action. It would only be a handful of months after Styles joined WWE in January 2016 that Rhodes left the company under the bbeleif that he could become something bigger outside WWE.
Though AJ and Cody have yet to go one-on-one, Styles knows what it's like to step into the ring with a Rhodes. In October 2003, Styles faced the American Dream Dusty Rhodes in TNA Wrestling for Styles' NWA World Heavyweight Championship. The Phenomenal One left with the gold that night and hopes to do the same at Backlash: France when the Undisputed WWE Championship is on the line.
