• AJ Styles Comments On Making Wrestling As Real As Possible

During a recent interview with Orlando Sentinel, WWE Champion “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles talked about making wrestling as real as possible, his Royal Rumble 2016 debut & more.

Below are the highlights:

On making his official WWE debut at Royal Rumble 2016:

“Everything pales in comparison to the Royal Rumble. The response I got that night from the fans, after a couple of years out of the U.S. mainstream, is something I’ll never forget. I was really worried about how much the people would actually remember me, but that response made it something really special.”

On making Wrestling as real as possible:

“I take a lot of pride in what I do. No matter who I’m in the ring with, I want it to look like what it’s supposed to be. We call it sports entertainment, but it’s supposed to be a contact sport. I want to make that in-ring contact as real as possible, and also make it real outside the ring.

The magic is making the fans question whether these two guys really like each other or hate each other. That performance is what the business is all about…it’s the storylines that people remember.”

• Jeff Jarrett Makes First Wrestling Appearance After Coming Out Of WWE Sponsored Rehab

Former WCW World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Jarrett recently returned from a WWE sponsored rehab for substance abuse and made his first wrestling appearance following the rehab last week on Wednesday.
