10 Phenomenal AJ Styles moments

6: 5 Star Battle with Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels

AJ Styles defeated Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels in a rare 5 star match.

Dave Meltzer is one of the most well-known names in all of professional wrestling journalism. Some love the guy, others love to hate him. Either way, he's known by many in the wrestling world. Meltzer is also known for bestowing a select number of matches with the title of "5 star match." While it’s a rare honor, it is considered a high honor indeed, with very few ever achieving such a feat.

At TNA Sacrifice on September 11, 2005, AJ Styles defeated both Christopher Daniels and Samoa Joe, in a Triple Threat match, winning the TNA X-Division title. What makes this title victory even better, is the fact that this match also earned the prestigious 5 Star ranking from Meltzer and Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
