During a recent interview with Good Karma Wrestling HBK was asked to appoint fighters who, in his opinion, are the best fighters in the world today. Michaels, known as “Mr. Wrestlemania,” told two outstanding talents: AJ Styles and Seth Rollins.
“I think Seth is a fantastic fighter. I chose one of them without thinking much. It is a guy who has an incredible talent,” Michaels said. “Aj Styles is still a guy that I also think is fantastic. The more I feel and I think about it, other guys probably appear, but I will say that right now, for me, for my type of style and what I enjoy the fighting, AJ and Seth are razing a lot.”
Both AJ Styles and Seth Rollins have been important figures in WWE, known for their exceptional ring skills and versatility. Styles, who has been outside the WWE television since His defeat in the combat “I Quit” against Cody Rhodes in WWE Clash At The Castle Earlier this year, it is still one of the most respected fighters in the industry. Meanwhile, Rollins has also been off the screen after being eliminated by Bronson Reed a few weeks ago, but his reputation as a first level talent is undeniable.
While Michaels continues to be a mentor of the next generation of WWE talents, his admiration for fighters like Styles and Rollins reflects the high standards he maintains in terms of excellence in the ring. Fans can only expect to see more of these incredible athletes when they return to the WWE television.
