#1 AJ Styles

AJ is one of the best wrestlers in the world today

AJ Styles was a jobber for the WWE back in 2002 but never even made it into the company’s developmental system. He then went on to have a phenomenal career all over the world including in TNA, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Ring of Honor, and more before the WWE finally came calling in 2016.

AJ signed with the WWE last year and has gone on to become one of the best in the world during his time in the company.

He looks set to be the top guy in the WWE until he finally decides to hang up his wrestling boots once and for all.
