Over the last few years AJ Styles has made a major impact in WWE, and he’s feuded with some of the biggest names that the business has to offer.
John Cena has without a doubt been one of AJ’s biggest rivals since he joined WWE, and for a while The Phenomenal One was using “Beat up John Cena” as one of his catchphrases.
During a recent Twitch stream AJ Styles noted that he pitched a shirt with the catchphrase to Vince McMahon, and the Chairman of the Board immediately shut it down.
“Man, he was so much fun to work with,” Styles said. “We did some really good stuff. He was so smooth and easy to work. That whole, “Beat up John Cena” thing was just a lot of fun. I actually had an idea for a shirt that said, “Beat Up Cena” or something like that, but when I pitched it to Vince, he said, ‘You want me to promote a shirt rooting against my top baby face’? I just went ahead and let that one go.
