AJ watched Heyman praise him after Survivor Series 2017

Paul Heyman praised AJ Styles for being the equivalent of HBK & Bret Hart to this generation of wrestling fans after his brutal match against Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series 2017.

Not only that, but Styles' AJ's WWE 365 Network special revealed that Paul Heyman wanted Styles to watch him praise The Phenomenal One from the sidelines. So during this promo, Styles was actually witnessing Heyman praise him in front of the camera.

This truly shows that Styles has earned the respect of some of the top professionals working in this business. Moreover, getting the stamp of approval from the mastermind behind ECW & perhaps pulling out a great match out of Brock Lesnar might be one of the main reasons why his position within the company was further strengthened to guarantee his rise to the top.
