Frankie Kazarian Names AJ Styles, Randy Orton, And More As WWE Dream Opponents
Frankie Kazarian names several former WWE Champions as his dream opponents.
Frankie Kazarian has had a Hall of Fame career by any measure. While he did have a brief run in WWE, it was more of a footnote in a career that includes legendary performances in TNA Wrestling and some of the formative moments in AEW’s history.
Currently, TNA Wrestling has a working relationship with WWE. As such, the possibility for Kazarian to wrestle some of the legendary names who work for WWE is once again on the table. When speaking to SoCal Val for WrestlingNewsCo, Kazarian named AJ Styles as the first dream match that comes to mind. While it would be far from their first squared circle showdown, it’s a match he wants to have one more time.
“I mean, the first name that comes to mind and has been discussed a lot this year is AJ Styles. It wouldn’t be anything new. We’ve wrestled each other literally hundreds of times. But the amount of respect I have for that guy and to see what he’s done in the last decade of WWE, and the guy had a Hall of Fame career when he was in TNA, and what he’s done in the last decade there is just unprecedented. So I would love to do that dance one more time with him.”
Looking at other legendary names in WWE, Frankie Kazarian says he would like the chance to wrestle Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, or even The Miz.
“A couple of guys, if we’re talking ‘dream match’ scenarios, I don’t like that word, but guys that I have not yet had the privilege to get in the ring with, we’re talking guys like Randy Orton, guys like Rey Mysterio. Hell, I love to mix it up with The Miz, my old buddy, The Miz. That’s if I were to dip my toe under that water.”
Frankie Kazarian did appear in a Battle Royal on WWE NXT in 2024. AJ Styles appeared at TNA Slammiversary, and when fans asked for one more match, he said the situation would arise in time.
