He said, “I never changed my style with respect to how my wrestle. The only difference was that WWE has a lot more cameras facing you than the independent circuit, but I think that was just a learning curve that you need to go through and it has really helped me.”

AJ Styles is widely recognized for his amazing work ethic. He always looks to improve to keep himself above the par level in today’s wrestling industry. He also cited the example of current IGWP champion Kazuchika Okada.

“Of course I have room for improvement. Look at a talent like Kazuchika Okada; he is one of the best wrestlers in the world and the kid is not even 30. He has won the IWGP championship at such a young age and when you see a talent like that, it inspires you to work harder.”
