WWE Hall of Famer AJ Styles recently shared his thoughts on whether AEW World Champion Kenny Omega could ever join WWE.
Omega won the AEW World Championship last week on Dynamite. He defeated MJF to capture the title. Omega now faces Will Ospreay at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium. Styles praised the upcoming title match and said fans should expect a great contest between the two.
Speaking on The Phenomenally Retro Podcast, Styles answered a question about Omega potentially joining WWE. Styles questioned why Omega would even do it, comparing the situation to him leaving WWE for AEW.
AJ Styles responds to Kenny Omega joining WWE
“Why? Why would you? Right. I mean, he’s on the board when it comes to AEW. He’s put his heart and soul into it. It’s like me. Would we ever see AJ Styles in AEW? Why? I like the company that I work for, despite what everybody else thinks.”
“My job is to do the best for the company that I’m working for. No matter which company I work for, my job is to do the best for it. And I’m going to do that. That’s just who I am.” Styles then explained why he avoids promotion wars. He said he respects wrestlers from both companies equally.
“So, again, I’ve said this before, it’s not me protecting WWE. It’s me protecting the people that work for WWE my peers, the guys that I care about, and the women that I care about there. So, I will defend them because I know they’re busting their tails to put on a great show.”
He continued, “And I’m not going to bash AEW because those guys are doing the exact same thing. They’re trying to be different and all these things. I get it. I get it. So, I’m not going to do that. That’s not what I’m about.”
