AJ Styles recently spoke with Brian Fritz of Sporting News about various topics. Here are the highlights.
On his WWE debut:
“I mean, how can you forget something like that?,” Styles said. “Your debut and not only did you debut in WWE, but it was at the Royal Rumble and the WWE Universe went nuts for it. I don’t know if I can ever top that. I’m going to give it a shot, but I don’t know if I can ever top it.”
On Kenny Omega’s G1 Climax victory:
“I think Kenny was always capable of doing it. I don’t know if they didn’t see it at the time or maybe the group was so big that we were in that it was hard to see how great Kenny was. I’m so proud of him. I texted him to tell him how proud I was of him. He’s got a first under his book; he’s the first gaijin to ever win the G1. That’s huge. Everybody, we’re all so very proud of him. He got me on his one. Trust me, I wanted that bragging right, but I’m glad Kenny has it.”
On being in WWE 2K17:
“I think my son is more excited about it than I am, and I’m pretty freaking excited about this,” Styles said. “Being in a game like ‘2K17’ is unbelievable. The stuff you can do in this game, the soundtrack that it has, the characters. So many great things about this game and now being a part of it, I’m on cloud nine.”
