WWE^25
star is the best
trash talker and
the worst loser
when it comes to
video games?
AJ Styles: As far
as trash talking I
think Kofi Kingston
may be the best.
He can trash talk like nobody
else’s businesses. As for the
worst loser, that would be me
for sure.
KRASH: What console do
you play on?
AJ Styles: I’m an Xbox
One X guy. Right now
I’m into PlayerUnkown’s
Battlegrounds. Basically it’s
the same as Fort Knox but for
adults.
KRASH: Australia is
buzzing with the news that
a major WWE stadium show
looks to be coming Down
Under in October — will we
see you here for that?
AJ Styles: I do hope so. I
know how great the fans are in
Australia. I would love nothing
more than to be a part of that.
KRASH: What do you hope
your legacy will be?
AJ Styles: Aside from AJ
Styles being one of the
hardest workers in WWE, I
hope people also think of me
as a good guy and someone
they can trust. We’re a huge
family at WWE because we’re
away from home so much.KRASH: How do you feel
about your WrestleMania
34 match with Shinsuke
Nakamura?
AJ Styles: I thought
WrestleMania 34 was going to
be our dream match but then
he showed his true colours.
I’m looking forward to getting
my retribution.
KRASH: If you could
insert yourself into any
WrestleMania match from
any era, who would you
like to face?
AJ Styles: The Undertaker
or Shawn Michaels. I’d love
to have the opportunity to
get in the ring with them
and learn.
KRASH: Which NXT
talent would you like
to smack down?
AJ Styles: If any
of these kids want
to come up
and get a
piece of AJ
Styles they’re
more than
welcome to
try. I’ll take
on anybody
and everybody
and when
it comes to my
championship I’m a fighting
champion so line ’em up
and I’ll knock ’em down.
KRASH: You’re a big
gamer — which WWE
KRASH: What advice would
you give KRASH Heads who
dream of being a professional
wrestler?
AJ Styles: I would definitely
tell them to have a back-up plan.
Not because I don’t believe in
them but because this is such a
difficult business to reach a top
level in. There are more soccer
players, football players and
professional athletes than there
are wrestlers. It’s a tough road
but if you want it bad enough
you’ll find a way to get there.
Just believe in yourself and learn
as much as you can.
KRASH: You’re often referred
to as the best wrestler in the
world — do you have anything
left to improve upon?
AJ Styles: I think once you
believe that you’ve learned
everything and you’re the master
then you might as well get out.
There’s always things you can
improve and there’s always going
to be a bigger prize. I think that’s
part of being successful. I’m
always reaching.
