AJ Styles' Sudden Rise in WWE (2016)

[@wrestlingspremier]

I know I posted this a bit early. AJ Styles' rise to the top is one of my favorite stories of this decade. I just loved all of it. The matches with Reigns, His feud with Y2J, His great story with John Cena and obviously his title win. What did you think of AJ Styles' rise to the top?

[@erotomainasequnce]

WrestlingsPremier you have to do a rise of Christian

[@wrestlingspremier]

Christian's one of my favorites. It's an idea I have for the future. Right now, I'm looking to make a video on Edge and Christian's run and if that does well, Then I'll just make it after the Rise of Edge video.

[@ExvnOnTheGame]

Great video I love these videos as your a genuine fan I remember watching those 1999-2001 ladder matches I think that going to Japan was where he really become that guy for styles .

[@ChhzCpeon0]

He got that big push. I was worried about them not showcasing his talents well in WWE. I definitely watch Aj Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura's wk10 bout after this. At 5:42 Don't you mean get the penny titles.

[@mbeas9612]

WrestlingsPremier This was an impactful year for AJ. Having epic feuds, matches, being the #1 top heel in WWE and winning the WWE title. This also the year where he became an massive main eventer

[@mbeas9612]

AJ Styles' 2016 rookie year was epic because he had epic feuds and matches with Y2J, Reigns, Ambrose, and Cena and have won the WWE title after only 8 months after his debut. 2016 will be known as the year of AJ Styles

[@manman2409]

Yeah 2016 was a really good year for aj but 2017 was even better

[@mbeas9612]

TheBestFighter Just to say AJ defeated him 3 times in his rookie year. That's all

[@mbeas9612]

TheBestFighter Yeah AJ's rookie year is up there with Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar's rookie year as WWE's greatest rookie years of all time.

[@nzuzovilakazi756]

@TheBestFighter I love Cena.

[@nzuzovilakazi756]

@TheBestFighter I do

[@RileyScarletSpiderGirl]

You should also do a video on Christian he had an amazing career that often goes unappreciated he should be in the Hall of Fame

[@johnmag5869]

One more match

[@Nike355-SVR11]

Yeah that's exactly what I wanna see!

[@honkedoffjohn]

The main reason I like AJ Styles in the WWE is cause his theme song is easily Top 5 right now, possibly Top 10 All Time.

[@Omgitzhuncho]

John Meza dude this isn’t even his best theme song ever😂 not even top 3 but it is nice tho

[@M.Sleeze]

Nigga your logic!!! :|

[@patrickperalta59]

I recall a interview where AJ Styles mentioned in his early days of his career he was working the indy scene he did had some try out matches in WWE around 2001 where he was seen on Heat and Volocity.. at the time Style was offered a contract by WWE after thinking it over he turned it down one of the reasons he did was because WWE wanted him to move to OVW or one of the other training places and he didn't want to move after just having moved his family to a new home. he didn't want to uproot them again......short time later he was in TNA when they started.

[@nicholaschristie8699]

When he won the title, I thought, "boy, don't you people feel stupid for saying he was buried now." Lol

[@kevinmccoy3375]

Idk how you put out 15-20 minutes videos out almost every day but keep it up‼️

[@youngma4205]

It’s his drive. Nun but respect for em💯🤙🏾

[@carloganz]

Even after Style's debut on Royal Rumble and got a huge pop. Vince still wasn't impressed. AJ was so good that he changed Vince's mind to where he had a successful career in WWE to date.

[@mohaumoloko4994]

I hate it when a fan's favorite loses a couple of matches and they say that *Insert name of wrestler* is officially buried

[@hafizsyednomanali7065]

AJ Styles is a top-guy of WWE and has just 4 more years left of him. However, he lacks WWE moments unlike other top-guys. WWE should let him beat atleast one household name(Taker, Brock, Edge, HHH,etc.), become Grandslam champion, main-event WM,etc. Also, WWE should let AJ defeat Roman, Rollins, Balor,etc atleast once bcuz AJ has never defeated them.

[@capturedbygrace1]

not taker

[@blackmadamada2259]

AJ vs nakamura should have main evented WM34 The only way i see Aj main eventing a wrestlemania now is against an NXT guy (Garagano or Cole) or if by some miracle CM punk returns to in ring action

[@corpyhogan4433]

I read somewhere that vince is extremely supportive of Aj Styles

[@M.Sleeze]

Since his first match with roman at payback 2016 hes one of the vinces goldenboy

[@nunka34ify]

Who wouldn’t be?

[@Piripiao_YT]

*My fave wrestler of all time, that 2016 Royal Rumble debut still gives me goosebumps to this day.*

[@HurrikaneBEA5T]

💯💯🔥man i had a concussion at the time and was partially feeling sleepy due to effects of concussion but i remember i passed out for final 10-15 minutes of whatever match was before the rumble,but when i tell you once the rumble started,and AJ came out at number 3 with the unknown theme,romans face expression,then the words phenomenal going across the screen woke me tf up 💯💯💯💯💯 i was so happy because in 2006 we always wondered if aj went to wwe at the time would he beat cena or would cena go to tna. Just amazing.

[@Piripiao_YT]

@@HurrikaneBEA5T I was in shock, I really thought he was a forever Indie guy then the music hit

[@shyrickman3289]

I was a huge aj styles fan growing up. Especially in tna. I remember my junior year of high schooI changed my Instagram name to : onephenomenalone simply for aj styles lol. I was def a fan boy. Crazy how fast time flies

[@GTarget-95]

AJ Styles is an all round superstars, that keeps modifying and refurbishing talents and personality

[@cityhunter6754]

That victory over Styles at WM was actually very important for Jericho.... it gave him back a lot of credibility that he was losing... and he never looked back n reinvented himself with List n Owens feud etc..

[@itzz_Orbit]

I like watching your videos and keep the great work

[@blissfulsoul5056]

Marvin Martinez so do I

[@wrestlingspremier]

I appreciate the nice comments. Thanks!

[@cailym1]

Dolph Zigglers 2012-2013 run or can you do a video on Matt Bloom and why he kept failing

[@NookTommy]

Did the Jericho actually suggested that Y2AJ tshirt so the fans wouldn’t expect a heel turn?? Not for me. I knew right from the start that Jericho will turn on AJ. AJ is and was never a tag team wrestler. Even the tshirt doesn’t convince me

[@KRAYZ31619]

AJ Styles is honestly my favorite wrestler of all time. I marked tf out when he won the wwe championship. And I'm glad he held the title for more than a year in his second. He deserved it.

[@deviyonyoung3124]

KRAY-Z facts i miss 2016 aj and smackdown live back then

[@Kskillz2]

2016 AJ Styles is the Best AJ Styles!

[@BigRion16]

[@ahceda09]

AJ styles was already in the top of his game before he came to wwe. He was already a veteran

[@DivoCapella]

ahceda09 FACTS

[@maarvinbroncano4414]

You, good sir, should absolutely do AJ's 2nd reign as WWE Champion, w/c lasted for 371 days 🙂 - started when he beat Jinder at an episode of SDLive in Manchester in November 2017. He had an excellent champ vs champ match w/ Brock Lesnar, he went through a rematch w/ Jinder, to KO & Sami, to a 6-pack match, to the Nakamura series, Rusev I believe at one point had a chmapionship match, & the Samoa Joe series, until losing it to Daniel Beyan (who earlier that year returned after retring in 2016) who kicked him in the nuts also at Smackdown one year & 6 days after he won the title PS. Gave you a sub. I've been binge-watching your content as of late. Keep up the good stuff man

[@lrdside2993]

I love you're video's man

[@mohdabidmohiuddin1043]

[@taylormademyself89]

Also does anybody remember back then when roman was the guy and seth was the man ( my how times have change from him being the the man to being with the man ) and Ambrose saying since they had the man and the guy then he guessed his the dude 🤣

[@MCwhiner]

aj "IS" and always will be the 'best bout machine'

[@itz_syphix7716]

He was my favorite wrestler of the decade besides cm punk at HBK

After Styles had his final match in NJPW.

AJ should hold it again before he Retires.

[@KINGKONG-zo5gb]

I was thinking to go to your channel just a while ago, but for some reason I searched wwe then filtered to last hour. So I found you.

[@auringtail]

AJ Styles is one of the best gets WWE got, hopefully they rise him up real good.

[@gsauce1992]

aj style's debut in 2016 still giving me goosebumps !!!!!!!!

[@noeltakeover1]

AJ Styles booking in 2016 was Phenomenal🔥🔥🔥

[@anomola4014]

Aj Styles is G.O.A.T, the first time I saw her catcher I was like crazy but how he could do things so difficult so easily it was not a light weight he was so powerful in his moves his name of "Phenomenal One" was more that deserved and since then he is one of my favorite wrestlers. His entry into the Rumble still chills me the biggest signing of this decade the best of his generation and in the same year he gives 2 classic to the WWE and becomes the champion of the WWE the same year it's phenomenal. I really hope this bullshit with Omos as his partner will stop for new ones to give him back the title.

[@thephenomenalone9141]

Aj Styles Vs John Cena was something special 🤩

I never wanted him losing to Roman

[@taylormademyself89]

Been a fan of aj styles since 2002 and not just cuz we both from south aka just few one town over from me lol but because he was changing the wrestling for the better in tna in roh in new japan in wwe hope wat his said is true and he still got lot more yrs in the tank 😎🤘

Love your videos. What if you did a resurrection of Brsy Wyatt video?

[@wrestlingspremier]

Seems like a good idea. If I were to make it, I'd probably make it after WrestleMania cause I wanna see how his feud with Cena goes.

[@capri22456]

You Should Do a Video on The Social Outcast

[@therealcs02]

John Cena played a major role in AJ becoming a star in WWE. The fact that they had a “indie star” beat The Face Of WWE not once but twice. I personally believe that without the series of matches he had with Cena AJ wouldn’t have been a big star in the company.

Ok so I haven’t watched wrestling in years, I’ve tried to get back into it over the past few months. This is a completely off topic question but what’s the whole storyline with Edge and Randy Orton? What’s going on? Also, what’s the storyline with AJ Styles and Undertaker? I’ve read about stuff but haven’t caught an episode in years. I did watch the royal rumble this year
