It would be an astonishing feat to “combine the belts” but like you say he has some ground to make up.
AJ and a few others were very upset when he swept to the title last year so hopefully he will feel it is worth doing.
I was upset?😂 I just find him exceptionally boring and all that Mister crap is a load of shite. He also loves to ask questions but isn't too good at answering them.
