WWE United States Champion AJ Styles has opened up on a wide range of topics while doing a recent interview with Brian Fritz of Sporting News.
In this interview, he was asked about Paul Heyman being named executive director of the Raw television show.
This has been a hot topic since the news was announced as the move to have Heyman take over Raw while Eric Bischoff will lead the charge for SmackDown Live, which was done to increase ratings and viewership.
“I’ve always been a fan of Paul Heyman,” he said. “This guy is the mastermind that can take performers and hide their weaknesses and exploit their strengths. It’s just unbelievable how good he is at this.”
Styles continued by stating, “To have that guy helping out on Raw, I’m excited. I think everyone’s excited. I think when you see, since he started helping out, how much has changed it’s all positive at this point and I’m looking forward to working with him more.”
