AJ Styles espère que la WWE s’implique davantage au Japon.
Après avoir acquis la promotion mexicaine AAA, la WWE devrait, selon Styles, faire la même chose au Japon.
Il a soutenu, sur son podcast Phenomenally Retro, que la WWE n’a pas besoin de tout bouleverser et de changer la culture de la promotion japonaise en question.
“I would love WWE to find a way to be in Japan, kind of like the way AAA is. We’re not changing what they’re doing. We’re not trying to change the culture. We’re just putting our spin on it. … It’s not them coming to WWE, but WWE has purchased a company in Japan. Now, we have Japan, we have Mexico.”
Styles soutient que la WWE peut faire revivre la lutte au Japon, sans avoir nécessairement à utiliser les lutteurs de ce pays à RAW ou à Smackdown.
“I don’t want them to come to Raw or SmackDown. I want them to be a WWE whatever in Japan. That’s what we need because we build our stars and just because we have stars that are Japanese doesn’t mean there can’t be some guys in Japan. We need those guys too. It’s endless things that we could do. I believe that with the help of WWE, we would be able to revive Japanese wrestling to where it was. I would love to see it back where it’s the Tokyo Dome. I’m talking about not like a WrestleMania over there, I’m just saying it’s the company selling out the Tokyo Dome like it did in the early ’90s. That’s what I would want to see.”
Styles a connu lui-même de beaux moments au Japon, en remportant deux fois le titre mondial de New Japan Pro Wrestling.
