10 "Then Versus Now" WWE Dream Matches
10. AJ Styles Vs. Eddie Guerrero
Early this year, news broke that four of New Japan Pro Wrestling's top stars - AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, Doc Gallows, and Karl Anderson - were leaving their home promotion to try their luck in WWE.
For longtime fans, the announcement was reminiscent of one from 16 years earlier - in 2000, WCW talents Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn did the same thing, finding varying levels of success in WWE.
Out of the four Radicalz, it was Guerrero who carved the greatest legacy. Though substance abuse issues hampered his career, he was able to conquer his demons and achieve greatness before his tragic death in 2005.
Already recognised as one of the best workers in the world, Guerrero became a genuine superstar in WWE.
AJ Styles, who in three short months has become one of the company's top players, is a high-flying super-worker in a way that's not altogether different from Guerrero. Both made names for themselves with superior in-ring work, then spent years reaching the upper echelon of the wrestling industry.
A match between the two would be an incredibly exciting, superbly athletic encounter. Styles would have the edge when it came to pure high-flying, but Latino Heat's ring savvy and match leadership was second to none. This would be a mile-a-minute classic, no doubt about it.
