Omos on AJ Styles’ upcoming retirement: ‘He’s truly the Phenomenal One’
Omos has nothing put praise for his former tag team partner.
In an interview with MuscleManMalcolm, Omos said that while it is sad AJ Styles is planning on retiring next year, he’s one of the greats, and is happy he’ll now have more time to spend with his family.
“He’s one of the greats. He’s wrestled for over twenty five years at this point. It’s sad that someone as great as him is going to be hanging up the boots, but still, I’m happy because knowing him personally, I know that he’s also a family man. He has a beautiful family, and I also know that he’s getting to spend time with his kids,” he said.
“He’s been successful in every company he’s ever wrestled, from Ring of Honor, New Japan, TNA, WWE. He’s done it all, he’s done everything man. He’s truly the Phenomenal One. That moniker is not just a moniker just for nothing. It means something. He’s done it at the highest level for twenty five years and still continues to do so,” he further added.
Omos’ first major storyline in WWE was teaming with Styles, and at one point the duo won the Raw Tag Team titles together. Omos eventually turned against Styles and aligned with MVP. In the years since, Omos has only made sporadic appearances on WWE-aligned programming. In the last year, he took part in a tour for Pro Wrestling NOAH and also appeared at AAA Triplemania, competing in a battle royal.
