The 'King of Strong Style' may have been schooled in Japan, but his loyalties now lie with Vince McMahon's WWE, where he already commands a main event spot despite being on the main roster for less than six months.

What makes that more impressive is that many observers have suggested the former NXT Champ has yet to move beyond second gear since heading State-side a couple of years back.

Still 37 - and therefore, theoretically at least, at the peak of his powers - you suspect that has less to do with any physical decline in the time since than it does the fact that he hasn't really been paired with anyone, Samoa Joe excepted, anywhere near close to his quality in the ring for anything more than a single TV match.

When the much-anticipated AJ feud finally becomes a reality, we expect more than mere flashes of brilliance.
