WWE star AJ Styles expresses his gratitude and humility after receiving praise from wrestling legend The Undertaker, who compared him to Shawn Michaels for his in-ring abilities and ability to elevate opponents. Styles also shares his thoughts on mentoring up-and-coming wrestlers and his upcoming WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes.
AJ Styles, a highly accomplished wrestler with a renowned career spanning over two decades, has recently been the recipient of some significant praise from none other than the legendary Undertaker. This accolade has left Styles humbled and immensely grateful.
Speaking to Fox News Digital, Styles expressed his awe and admiration for The Undertaker, recognizing him as a true icon in the wrestling industry. "‘Taker is a legend, no doubt about it, respected by everyone in the business," Styles remarked. "If you've ever met him, he's such a likable guy. For him to say something like that is pretty awesome."
The Undertaker's comparison of Styles to the legendary Shawn Michaels is particularly meaningful, given Michaels' exceptional in-ring skills and ability to make his opponents look phenomenal. Styles acknowledges this high honor, stating, "I look at Shawn and I look back at his matches and how unbelievable they were, and then especially the ones with The Undertaker, they were so good. That's pretty awesome. I'm just flattered he would say something like that."
Beyond his own accomplishments, Styles is also a compassionate mentor to younger wrestlers. While he does not see himself as a direct role model, he recognizes the importance of individuality in the wrestling world. "I never look at someone like me, like, ‘They're kind of like me.' I don't look at them like that, because I always thought that we got to be our own," he explained.
Styles believes in fostering the unique talents of each wrestler, ensuring they develop their own distinct identities and movesets, rather than imitating others. However, he acknowledges the challenges faced by aspiring wrestlers and offers support when needed. "Sometimes they need a boost and whatnot. And hopefully, I'm there to help them out with that, because I know how hard it is to be a professional wrestler."
With his sights set on the future, Styles is gearing up for a momentous match against Cody Rhodes at the upcoming WWE Backlash event. This highly anticipated showdown presents Styles with an opportunity to reclaim the WWE Championship for a third time. Backlash will mark a historic occasion, being the first WWE premium live event to be held in France, taking place in the city of Décines-Charpieu.
As Styles embarks on this next chapter in his illustrious career, he carries with him the profound respect of the wrestling community and the unwavering support of his legions of fans. His journey continues, promising more unforgettable moments and epic battles that will undoubtedly further cement his legendary status in the annals of professional wrestling.
