Styles was in WCW

 

[WarMachine1]

He came in right when they were about to go out of business

 

[WarMachine1]

TNA is where they're careers really took off

 

[TMBS]

more like where they got recognition

 

[TMBS]

Styles and Joe were killing it on the indies well before TNA

Where their careers took off was in ROH, imo

 

[Indy]

And tbf, whilst TNA is ofcourse credited for being their biggest mainstay, I really wish I knew what would happen if they weren't in TNA

 

[Indy]

Because I think their careers, especially AJ's career, could've been so much more impactful

 

[Indy]

He eventually got the recognition when he got to NJPW and was killing it there, but seeing that only showed me how mis-used he was in TNA

 

[Indy]

what if he stayed in ROH and because of that, learned and practiced his craft there? He would've still been the wrestler that he's today, but I think he'd be that for a longer period of time

 

[Indy]

like, 2011 Styles in TNA wasn't necessarily special but I believe that 2011 Styles in ROH or NJPW could've already been the best wrestler in the world at that point

 

[Indy]

TNA, however, liked using him in midcard matches that never end clean because of interference

 

[Indy]

big fan of Tumbas shutting his mouth and leaving everytime I join the chat~

 

[Indy]

A superpower like that should be used wisely
