AJ Styles was recently a guest on the ‘Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast‘. The ‘Phenomenal One’ spoke on a wide variety of topics about his wrestling career. One of these topics had to do with John Cena, who Styles has feuded with for a good chunk of his WWE career so far.

AJ says that he has learned a lot from John Cena since coming to WWE. Here is what he said on the podcast:
“I learned a lot from him. It’s just the little things that he does. People aren’t going to like this, but I’m telling you, I’d say 90% of the things I’ve learned that I felt helped me tremendously is John Cena. The guy… there’s a reason he was able to stay on for more than 10 years and done what he has done in his career.”
AJ on if Cena buries talent:
“I don’t think that’s true. It’s up to you, if you leave after your storyline with John Cena to carry on what you’ve been called. Exactly, exactly. That’s all it is and if you continue to do that, you’ll find a way to get to whatever spot it is.”
AJ on when he thinks Vince McMahon was sold on him as a talent:
“Well, I think it was the MizTV where I beat him up. I think that’s when he goes, ‘whoa, okay…’ It’s one of those things where you’ve just got to… I don’t know… I think Vince kind of likes a tough guy to some degree. And I’m not saying I’m Brock Lesnar, but I fought all my life.”
