Nah, they just pushing the old TNA days before it's return and AJ Styles was their biggest home grown star. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he makes a surprise return at the TNA return show.

My thoughts exactly

[@TheKizly]

This Will Always be better than his WWE gimmick.

[@TheBlackNostalgiaNerd]

All this is showing is his new WWE gimmick is his old TNA GIMMICK

[@LifeAfterDeathTube]

I miss this era of TNA so much! Hot take, but this was probably the best run of AJ's career imo. He was legitimately cooler than everyone else in any promotion at this time and each week you wanted to tune in to see what direction the character was going in next. When he tapped Jeff Hardy with the calf killer in the BFG series, my dad and I marked out like crazy. When he left, it was a HUGE blow to TNA.

Love him or hate him Vinnie Mac made wrestling what it is today. But. He's retired and sold wwe to ufc merger. So now... TIME TO REALLY SUPPORT THE OTHER GUYS AEW TNA NJPW ROH And the others I've not mentioned. Vince should've given it to Shane, could've picked his number and put it in the contract to pay him off, like he's had others do for him when he started out.

Bobby Roode is someone I’m sad didn’t get a true main roster run in WWE .

[@rayparker4231]

Would love for him to return now, or maybe even a one off return at the Rumble, with Triple H in charge it could’ve been fun but with his back fusion surgeries and age he’s probably done in ring sadly, seems to be enjoying producing and how much less it is on his body.

I still love Lone Wolf AJ Styles. Wonderful character work from him during this period, was a total badass plus the silent mode also helped him to cover his weakness of cutting promos.

I love that y'all uploaded this after AJ's Heel turning WWE, thanks for the memories.

[@acerivera5464]

Lone Wolf AJ was so dope! And then the transformation to the P1 again was even cooler!!!

[@johnnyblade51]

The whole story angle of “the Lone Wolf” AJ Styles is very similar to “the Crow” Sting. The reason why they withdraw from their wrestling organization and fans, how they become darker in character, how they go at it alone, and eventually how they take down a big heel faction and win the world title. Very similar storylines. Remember, Eric Bishcoff was with both companies during those times.

[@kennethhernandez9243]

I never watched tna back then (or now either) but as soon as I started watching this that’s exactly what this felt like. It was sting vs nwo all over again in all the best ways.

[@jonathanpanetta]

This was one of my favorite storylines in my teen years

[@jordankirby3075]

I wasn’t watching Tna at the time but I remember this storyline cause it blew up wrestling

[@rishav165]

​@@jordankirby3075was this popular??

[@NeroLunar]

​@@rishav165It was because it led to AJ Styles leading Bullet Club, which ended up popularizing the group.

[@Tyler-haych01]

It's the reason why we have long hair AJ. Because he wanted to take a darker path then ended up his being at the top of Bullet Club

[@aidenfrost10]

​@@rishav165This was pretty big in the Aces and 8s storyline. The main storyline was pretty weak but this individual side storyline was great for a while and got a lot of people invested in the story

[@clashzero6093]

Thanks TNA for uploading this story, you have no idea how much this means for many of us!! It's Simply Phenomenal!!

[@9009q]

I loved how the hood always pops back on his head 🤣 I always said when Aj Styles in this mood can't no one touch him! Phenomenal 1!

[@that_guy_dlo]

[@JoeyCharm]

AJ Styles is the main reason why I started watching TNA

[@ayevince8857]

Really one of the only reasons for me tna was underrated and better than current AEW as a alternative

[@cb1834]

2012 was the year the final time we saw AJ with short hair , as 2013 began he started to grow his hair out more and more

[@sandeepmahal-kp5em]

It's funny how Gallows & Styles meet each other when they was in TNA.

[@sithari518]

Gotta be honest, this angle also highlighted Dixie Carter's mic/acting skills as a heel. I found myself impressed more and more after every promo toward the end. Great heel. Perfect foil for AJ.

[@christophermccray6528]

Ah, the timing and the upload I've been waiting for.

[@EvaFull]

Really wish all the dates of each segment were listed somewhere in the video so you could follow the timeline a little bit better/know the length of it from start to end.

I grew up a WCW kid and I'm so glad to have had TNA this whole time . Psyched they're still going hard.
