10 Times AJ Styles Has Already Fought WWE Stars

By John Bills /

5. Seth Rollins

Almost ten years before Seth Rollins became the face of WWE with a shocking Money in the Bank cash-in during the main event of WrestleMania XXXI, he was a fresh faced beardless 19-year-old making his first real moves in the world of pro wrestling. Leisure centres, gym halls and lord knows else were the venues, slapping hands was the attitude. You have to go back to 2006 to find the one and only (as far as I'm aware) meeting between AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. Rollins was then known as Tyler Black and had been wrestling for less than a year, yet he still puts on a fairly stellar performance against a man who was considered one of the best in the world even then. After some surprisingly impressive near falls, Styles picks up the win.
