In an interview with Rock 100.5’s Bailey And Southside, WWE SmackDown Live superstar AJ Styles commented on a variety of topics, including what he wanted his name to be in wrestling, what WWE superstar he wants to face the most and more.
Highlights of the interview are below:
On what WWE superstar he wants to face the most: “Well, I can tell you there are a lot of people that want to see Nakamura, Shinsuke Nakamura and myself in the ring. We’ve done it before for a different company, but never in the WWE. I think something like that is going to happen, it has to.”
On Nakamura’s unique style: “He’s a different cat, there’s no doubt about it. He’s a big Michael Jackson fan and you can see that in his performance and everything he does, he’s Michael Jackson, but he’s a heck of an athlete. He’s an MMA guy, he knows his stuff and he will kick your head off, that’s legit. He fought in mixed martial arts, so the guy knows what he’s doing, so he’s kind of a bad dude, despite the fact that his stuff is Michael Jackson and that doesn’t come off as very intimidating, but it isn’t a laughing matter when he puts that boot up against your face.”
