In an interview with ABEMA ahead of WWE's live events in Japan next month, Styles praised both Asuka and IYO SKY. He claimed that SKY was one of the best athletes he had ever seen and praised The Empress of Tomorrow as well. Styles suggested that the two stars may have developed their tenacious style during their time in Japan, and that was possibly why they stood out on the roster.

“I’m in awe of some of them. IYO SKY is one of the best athletes I have ever seen. She is unbelievable. There’s other girls that have gotten the opportunity – Asuka’s amazing as well. They just have something that a lot of other – not just women, but men – that some of them just don’t have. And I think that it’s because they were in Japan that they have this tenacity, maybe that’s what it is. So, I just enjoy watching them work, and just in awe of how good they are," said Styles.

Speaking on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, Apter stated that Styles was not being disrespected by the company. The veteran journalist claimed that Triple H was waiting for the right time to bring Styles back to television and noted there is a ton of talent on the roster.

"They've done so much with AJ [Styles]. He's been around [9 years] at this point in WWE. I don't think they're disrespecting him at all. Proof of that, and maybe social media has something to do with this - the next [Crown Jewel PLE], John Cena vs AJ Styles is going to be the main event. So you get overlooked because you've been there for a long time, and they have such a rich amount of talent at this point, I don't think he [HHH] was disrespecting AJ Styles at all, I think he was waiting for the right time to get him back on TV," said Apter.
