What’s the story?
Kurt Angle was answering questions during a Q&A where he said that Jason Jordan’s wrestling was “up there with AJ Styles.” (Credits to Wrestling Estate for the transcription)
In case you didn’t know...
Styles has been wrestling for over 20 years and is considered by many to be the best wrestler in WWE as well as one of the best wrestlers in the world of professional wrestling.
Styles is the first man to ever win the IWGP, TNA, and WWE World Championships and has been praised heavily by Pro Wrestling Illustrated and the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
The heart of the matter
Angle said that Jordan’s wrestling ability made him one of the best three wrestlers in the company and that his skills were up there with the Phenomenal One’s regardless of what people think of Jordan's character.
“Whether you like his character or not, you can’t deny that he is right now one of the top three best wrestlers in the company. Watch him perform, watch him perform. He’s up there with AJ Styles.”
Angle went on to say that Jordan had the tools to be a future world champion himself and that it doesn’t get much better than Jordan’s in-ring performances.
“He has a different style, but you will see Jason Jordan as world champion eventually.” I know that people can’t stand him right now and I’m not sure if it’s because he’s my son, but his performance in the ring, it doesn’t get much better than that.”
What’s next?
Angle also said that he was hoping that this storyline with Jordan was heading towards an eventual match in the future and many fans have expressed that opinion.
Many fans are saying that Jordan is closer and closer to turning heel and that could occur next year if Angle faces Triple H in their rumoured Royal Rumble match.
Author’s take
Jordan is a good wrestler and has had entertaining matches since receiving his singles push began, but comparing him to the Phenomenal One is a bit of a stretch.
