He also commented on their work ethic, and how they make their opponents look good.
“AJ Styles or Kenny Omega. Both are spectacular performers. They make their opponents look incredible. That’s a sign of a real worker,” he said.
Coincidentally, both Styles and Omega were part of the infamous Bullet Club in their NJPW days. Both of them were leaders of the Bullet Club at one point before leaving for America.
