If I could go back in time to 2005, and tell my younger self (without creating a paradox and destroying the space-time continuum) that AJ Styles would be the WWE Champion, he'd probably tell me I'm crazy.

Hell that would have been crazy for me even 5 years ago, especially if I was told he would still be called AJ Styles in WWE.

Everyone still likes to forget that at the time he won the belt Miz was red hot, people were dying for him to win it, and it was largely seen as an, "About damn time!" move. I think it's just because how bad the reign was, considering his first match as champion was with a 61 year old Jerry Lawler.

I think it's just because how bad the reign was, considering his first match as champion was with a 61 year old Jerry Lawler. I was staunchly among those who rolled my eyes when Miz first showed up. His WWE reign actually turned my opinion on him around. It's a shame that his first defence was against Lawler, though he made the best of a bad situation but I think he performed rather well. There were several instances where he made it clear he wasn't going to quietly play second fiddle to the Rock and Cena (it still happened but he made some damn good efforts to prevent it). It seems that much like Punk's reign, the Rock/Cena thing really held it back from being what it could have.
