Im a old head who ain't really feeling AJ Styles like that ...

[Black Panther]

He wouldn't have been able to hang but he would have held a prestigious belt

Not in the World Title scene. IC title tends to go to hard workers that don't get as much of a push.

Tbh I respect the IC title more that the WWE Championship. Winning it is usually is an indicator of future success

Punk has something Styles never had or will have, a personality

 

[Momentum]

^Punk's never been better than Styles. One reason Styles has been getting tons of praise is because people weren't expecting him to be so good on the mic in the WWE. I've been watching AJ since he was dressing like a fighter pilot, and it was his promos that had haunted him for years. Dude was cringe-worthy, especially around that time when Impact had him being a mini-Flair. But to see him go toe to toe with guys today on the mic has elevated him as an all around guy. We weren't calling Rey, Eddie, Angle, etc Best in The World, cause we were simply appreciating a ton of good-great matches with star power. Styles as he is currently would have been right their with them. He's a star in his own right, he just isn't wrestling other stars like Angle, etc were back then.

The term Best in the World literally didn't exist until CM Punk coined the moniker and crowned himself.

No. DB and Jericho used it before him. Punk just made it popular.

You're just a casual. Your opinion doesn't matter.

Be a fakkit mark and compare the charisma of Eddie Latino Heat Guerrero to AJ Cornball Styles

 

[Playaz Eyez]

I'm a fakkit mark

I mean, I already knew this. Everybody on this board knows.

I'm not anxious to be associated with any idiot who compares Eddie Guerrero's charisma to AJ

pathetic

If you weren't a retard incapable of actually understanding shyt, you'd realize I didn't even say he had Eddie's charisma.

Except he didn't compare the charisma he just said Styles is a star in his own right and improved on the mic.

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

I remember people calling him a spot monkey back in TNA.

Dude was the farthest thing from a "spot monkey". You're confusing him with someone like amazing red. AJ could do it all, he could fly with the best of them, he could brawl (just watch him carrying abyss to his best match) and he could "wrestle" with the best of them as well. AJ is one of the most well rounded wrestlers of all time.

What I'm saying is facts tho. No revisionist history

Let's not pretend like he wasn't being called a spot monkey by some people.

My bad, I agree with you. WWE fans were calling all TNA x division wrestlers spot monkeys. But they were the farthest from it AJ, daniels, low ki, joe, shelley, homicide, sabin, aries and kazarian were not spot monkeys.

 

[Love Sosa]

I don't watch the new shyt but I do like AJ a lot. Just watch his matches with cena
