John Cena Gives His True Opinion Of AJ Styles

When AJ Styles first appeared in WWE back in January of last year, nobody really knew how he’d be used, and everyone feared that Vince McMahon, who is known for pushing big guys, wouldn’t see that AJ is arguably the best wrestler in the entire world, and that he would only focus on his lack of size. Thankfully, that didn’t happen, and The Phenomenal One is now a true main event player in WWE.

John Cena, who has been AJ’s best WWE opponent, was critical of The Phenomenal One before he arrived in WWE last year, but during a recent appearance on ESPN’s SportsCenter, the former 16-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion said that he was wrong about Styles.

“[AJ Styles] has pushed the envelope by speaking his mind, by challenging me. It’s no secret, I am getting a bit older, and just as AJ went through a long struggle to become a member of the WWE universe, there’s a lot of folks maybe within the WWE who think that I’m past my prime, and that I’ve lost a step, which creates a giant chip on this here shoulder. I wanna showcase to everybody watching that I’m still at my best, and it’s truly a testament to AJ Styles… I said after the [Royal Rumble], I told [AJ] that I was sorry, and that I was wrong about the way I viewed him. I think he is one of, if not the best WWE superstar who steps in a ring on a nightly basis.”
