The Phenomenal AJ Styles.
The Phenomenal AJ Styles.

Never say never: At one point, no one could have dreamed that AJ Styles would wrestle in a WWE ring, let alone be as wildly successful as he has been.

Arguably the best all-around performer on any brand, AJ maintains a top tier fitness regimen to keep up with men literally half his age. How was AJ's 2019, however?

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Win/Loss Record: With 23 wins and 24 losses, AJ splits the difference with an average grade. Grade: C

Championships: AJ started the year as the WWE Champion, but then downgraded to the US Championship, which he eventually lost to Rey Mysterio. Not shabby at all. Grade: A

Mass Media Appeal: Unlike many other wrestlers on our list, AJ is primarily only known to pro wrestling and sports entertainment fandom, and has little presence outside of the industry. Grade: D

Industry Influence: AJ Styles has been influencing in-ring work since his debut over twenty years ago. He's also set the standard for how an aging superstar is supposed to perform. Grade: A+

Overall Grade: B- AJ is simply phenomenal, but between stepping down to the mid-card and his average win-loss record he scores a bit higher than one would expect.
