WWE World Champion AJ Styles recently spoke with Amarillo Global News and below are some interview highlights:
On who he wants to face in WWE:
“I think as far as one-on-one matches, I’d like the opportunity to face Seth Rollins. I’ve heard that as a dream match. There’s Randy Orton, because I have not been in the ring with him at all. There’s still a couple matchups. I haven’t really been in a one-on-one match with Bray Wyatt. There’s a lot of guys that I’ve yet to have these one-on-one matches with that I think would be great, and again, I think it’s probably some of those dream matches that I think people want to see.”
On his favorite feud so far in WWE:
“It’s hard to pick a favorite, because I’ve had so many. Chris Jericho, John Cena and now Ambrose, and even Reigns on top of that. I think the one that sticks out in most people’s mind is John Cena. It seems like everywhere I go people are telling me to beat up John Cena, so that must have got over pretty well with the WWE Universe, and it probably got the most attention as well.”
On his first year in WWE:
“I don’t think I could say a negative thing about my run here so far. I’ve had the opportunity to be in the ring with some great guys, from Chris Jericho to Roman Reigns and now, Dean Ambrose and John Cena as well. I’ve had a great year, and to have my first year go this well is unbelievable. It started at the Royal Rumble and I guess that set the tone for how my year was going to be.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
