Insight with Chris Van Vliet
AJ Styles On Retiring Soon, His Phenomenal Career in WWE & TNA, The Undertaker, John Cena

That was good television to me, you know, as much as people hate it. But, you know, turns into Lone Wolf AJ Styles, which essentially is who you got โ€“ In Japan, just turned up a little bit more, having a little bit more fun rather than being angry the whole time. You know, that's all that was. What's the scariest moment you've had in the ring? Oh, I can tell you.

Ultimate X, Chris Saban, myself, and Petey Williams, which I think is a fantastic match. It is. If you ever watch it back. Yep. For some reason, I thought it was such a good idea. If I could hang from the rope and Saban, I knew was very capable of springboarding drop kicking me to the point where I'll do, I guess it's an inside out swing front flip.

Like when he hit me, I let go and I go, Oh my God. As I'm coming down, I was able to think to myself, I'm about to land on the back of my head and I'm probably not going to get up from this. And I'm thinking about this as I go, I'm going down and I land perfect. And, uh, that I was like laying there selling going, I'm never ever doing that again, ever. We'll do that again. Yeah.

I thought it was, I literally thought it was, if you could see me, I am tucked so hard trying to make sure that I made it. I didn't think I was going to, I thought I was literally laying on the back of my head. I'd have been out cold for sure.

Not a soul caught me. They fall down, but no one caught me. They didn't catch you. I mean, I just ate the mat. And it was my idea, so you know what? I mean, you're in there with a bunch of guys who, you know, they're getting closer to the end of their career. Do they really want to risk catching a kid that will be fine even if we don't catch him? You know, it's my fault.

That landing was like, boom, splat. I don't think I hit anybody with my hands. They just kind of fell like a... Like I went bowling or something like that, but I didn't touch anybody.

I have no idea who thought that was a good idea. It probably was me. But because it was me and James Storm that got up there and started fighting, I believe. Yeah. And I remember James being like, dude, what if we go through it? What if we go through the top of the cage? Like, oh. I hope that didn't happen. You know? So when we go through, you'll see his hands come out like this to grab.

So if he started going through, he was going to hang on to something, but it worked out, you know, it was fun. That was an, that was an easy bump for both of us. I think.

Not in TNA. I mean, it's pretty, you know, there was a, I don't know, there was a spot where Petey and I, Petey Williams and I were talking. He goes, hey, what if I give you this German suplex and you gut yourself on the guardrail? I'll have you on the apron. And Germans suplex you. You do the flip bump and gut yourself on the guardrail. What a terrible idea that is. We tried it.
