AJ Styles Reveals Which Wrestler His Theme Song Was Originally Meant For

WWE

WWE star AJ Styles has revealed which wrestler his theme song was originally meant for.

AJ Styles debuted for WWE in 2016 with what would become a wildly popular theme song called “Phenomenal”.

In a recent interview with Alex McCarthy of Inside The Ropes, the two-time WWE Champion discussed his theme and revealed who it was originally intended for.

Styles said:

“It wasn’t made for me. It was made for [James Storm]. And then I kind of explained what I’d like to [hear for my theme song], and it was that song that they presented.”

James Storm is best known for his time in IMPACT Wrestling where he is a former IMPACT World Champion and seven-time Tag Team Champion.

In 2015, Storm left IMPACT and appeared for WWE NXT twice. In his surprise debut, he used a theme song entitled, “Game Up”.

Road Dogg Brian James revealed in an episode for Table For 3 that Storm turned down CFO$-produced theme that would eventually become AJ Styles’ iconic entrance theme.
