Professional wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer Road Dogg who is also a former six times WWE World Champion recently talked about WWE Raw star and former two times WWE world champion AJ Styles and praised him. He called him one of the best wrestlers he has ever seen.
AJ Styles was one of the biggest names that were created by TNA Wrestling during the 2010s. TNA Wrestling mostly relied on big names that were already established and they could not make enough big stars. But there were some stars that TNA actually created. One of the biggest examples of that is AJ Styles who is working in WWE for over 7 years now. He made his WWE debut during the Royal Rumble match of 2016 and since then he is a regular in the promotion.
Road Dogg Has Major Praise For AJ Styles, Calls Him One Of The Best Ever
On the very first year WWE had to elevate him on to a main event status seeing his immense popularity among the WWE fans. On his 1st year in WWE, he earned multiple victories over John Cena, also defeated Dean Ambrose to win the WWE Championship. Later he defeated Jinder Mahal to win his second WWE Championship. He is second rain lasted for over one long year.
Styles is still active in WWE and right now he is working as a mid card. He is not in the World title picture anymore but he has constantly been a workhorse who works every week on television. Currently he is leading his faction the OC in WWE and he is doing quite good as a mid card. His recent rivalries with Edge and The Judgment Day were really loved by the WWE Universe. We hope he keeps on working in WWE for at least another decade.
Road Dogg who is also a former six times WWE World Champion recently spoke on his “Oh…You Didn’t Know” Podcast where he talked about WWE Raw star and former two times WWE world champion AJ Styles and praised him. He called him one of the best wrestlers he has ever seen. He said;
“I think AJ Styles is, if not the best right now, and let’s say then, he has been working very hard ever since he showed up at the Rumble that year. So he’s older now and he’s slower now and he wants to work smarter now, but when he first got here and I still think he was very much in his prime, the road puts it on you. You know what I mean? TVs and the road and that kind of life.
“You know, be careful what you wish for because it ain’t easy. So he’s tired now, but man, when he first got there, there ain’t nobody, nobody, that works like he does. He works like everything he does in the ring from bell to bell is real and that’s what I love about AJ Styles.
“I love to have fun when I was in the ring, but when I was involved in the physicality, I always like to think I did it like it was real unless I was having fun or something, but AJ worked so hard on making every single thing he does look real.
“It’s so admirable and such a lost art that it’s still great to see him do it, and I know people go, ‘Oh Kenny Omega, oh this guy, oh that guy.’ I don’t care who you’re talking to. If you’re asking me my opinion, AJ Styles is one of the best, if not the best wrestler I’ve ever been in the ring with, seen, watched at home like a fan, watched in the arena like a fan. He’s one of the best I’ve ever seen and that’s my opinion on AJ Styles.”
