CONGRATS AJ STYLES~!

[supersonic]

As expected, the man who had been ready for the big time since 2003 but took more than a decade to be offered a lucrative WWE contract worthy of his actual greatness, has finally reached the top of a WWE brand, becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion, a title with lineage dating back to 1963.

A former IWGP Heavyweight Champion, ROH Tag Team Champion, PWG Champion, and mulitiple-time champion in TNA, AJ Styles has earned every bit of his success, and every ROH fan should be glad to see someone who gave so much to the underground wrestling scene, join CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Tyler Black, and Kevin Steen as ROH legends to have ascended to the top of the industry's mainstream scene.

Only bad thing was the anticlimactic finish of his title win.

Only bad thing was the anticlimactic finish of his title win.

I didn't think it was anti-climactic at all.

Should probably have gone over at Final Battle to be honest.

The underdog champion going over the bigger star is all well and good if you have a satisfying long-term plan in place. In retrospect I'd have taken him winning and immediately vacating the title over the past year of aimlessness.
