#2 AJ Styles
I vividly remember an incredibly enthusiastic gentleman who liked to “Beat up John Cena"! Said gentleman is a former WWE Champion and also happens to be one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time. AJ Styles is no stranger to Cena. We’ve been privileged to witness several electrifying matches between these two icons in the past.

What is pro wrestling magic, you ask? We as fans of this wonderful sport have varying definitions of what constitutes great pro wrestling, but a classic match or feud would generally be one that features great characters, an entertaining storyline, and good in-ring wrestling!
Out of all the Superstars listed in this conversation of ours, Cena vs. Styles could most definitely take the cake for every fan’s dream feud. It doesn’t matter whether the feud takes place on the “Road to WrestleMania” or during the post-Mania season, a Cena vs. Styles rivalry always delivers quality matchups and excellent promos.
