AJ Styles Wants A Match Against Daniel Bryan

AJ Styles is headed into WrestleMania and one of the biggest battles of his career could await him. This is extremely exciting for fans and critics alike and at this point, nothing will keep The Phenomenal One from giving his all at the Show Of Shows against Shinsuke Nakamura.

IGN was lucky enough to get a word with AJ Styles where he had a lot to say. With WrestleMania coming up so fast he seems focused and determined to excel and steal the show no matter where his match falls on the card.

During the interview, Styles was asked about Shinsuke Nakamura and what he thinks makes the pairing of the two of them so special.

“I think we’re both unique and just from having been in the ring I know that he and I work well together. I can only say that from one experience, where we wrestled a one-on-one match, but I don’t know how to explain it. There’s just a flow to a match, to our match, that I really can’t compare to a lot of people. He’s so unique and unorthodox in his character and we just work so well when get step in that ring…I think there’s always something special about a build.”

“The fact that Shinsuke and I haven’t really touched each other these past few months. And that we’ve also never had a one-on-one match in the WWE. So it’s like, these guys are going to be in the ring together and they’re going to have to to go at it. No one’s going to stop it or break it up. The referee is going to either count to three or someone’s going to tap out. It’s going to happen.”

But it looks like AJ Styles has his eyes set on more than just Shinsuke Nakamura. Since Daniel Bryan’s recent medical clearance, it looks like Styles is thinking about the possibilities of making some magic in the ring with the Bearded GOAT.

“There are a few things that I’m selfish about and selfishly I’ve been wanting to wrestle Daniel Bryan in WWE for a long time. When he got hurt, I just figured it wouldn’t be a possibility. But now that he’s back, my mind is racing and I can’t wait to meet him in the ring. I’m so happy he’s back and able to live out his dreams and follow his passion.”

No matter what ends up happening in AJ Styles’ future, it doesn’t sound like he’ll be slowing down anytime soon.
