Whenever I hear "rookie" I think of that wolverine taunt from marvel vs capcom.

You can't list all indie and Japanese accomplishments and hype him as a hot free agent if he's also a rookie. It's a contradiction. As for a redneck, that should never be mentioned. It doesn't fit into the character he needs to play of being a world-traveled, international star. Good point. Why is it being mentioned? I'm from the south, but just being from the south doesn't make you a redneck. That's very true. But being AJ Styles does.

Listen to AJ talk, you'll understand why they call him a redneck.

I'm actually liking how AJ is being pushed, they make you understand that he is a cool wrestler but in a more subtle that others superstars that are groomed as "top prospects"

It's supposed to grate on you. They're cribbing what they did with Miz and Daniel Bryan to a degree, and that's fine, given it worked wonders. I'm kind of looking forward to the day where they feel like they don't have the pull the "The company is your enemy" and "We're going to hire internet favorites, then shit all over them to get the internet outraged and support them harder" cards anymore.

I wish there was a punishment for bad commentary.
Like, if Byron says something stupid, Hornswoggle and El Torito charge out from under the ring and beat him senseless, then go back under the ring.
There should be a WWE App button where fans can vote on when commentary deserves a beating.

People mute sports broadcasters on television in order to listen to radio broadcasters. Bring it to us, WWE.

Remember the last guy that they lambasted as rookie despite his major accomplishments in other organizations?
YES YES YES

Someone who's under contract and just retired certainly could be entertaining color commentator.

Baron Corbin steps in the ring with AJ Styles. "So this is Christopher Daniels, I thought you'd be taller". Go back to Lucha Underground
