AJ Styles: Brock Lesnar Told Me I’d Fly Out The Ring If I Jumped When He Gave Me A German Suplex
AJ Styles reflects on working against the Beast Incarnate.
Brock Lesnar and AJ Styles clashed at the 2017 Survivor Series event. AJ, like many before him, came up short against Brock Lesnar but wrestling against Brock is an experience AJ will never forget.
Speaking with Inside The Ropes, AJ Styles recalled working with Brock Lesnar and what Brock Lesnar told him about taking one of his German suplexes and avoiding flying outside of the squared circle.
“It was great. We kind of discussed how we wanted the beginning to go and then after, I threw in my two cents. He told me not to jump when he gives me a German or he’d throw me out of the ring. I said, ‘Okay.’ But yeah, I mean, I think Brock showed me a lot of respect in the match that we had, and in telling the story. It was great. I thought it was one of the better matches that I’ve had. I was very happy with it,” AJ said.
