During a recent Twitch stream, AJ Styles took some time off from playing games to interact with his fans. There, the former WWE Intercontinental Champion opened up on a range of subjects, including Roman Reigns’ much-awaited heel turn and Shane McMahon possibly taking over WWE RAW. While talking about The Big Dog working with Paul Heyman, AJ Styles said that it's surprising to see Roman Reigns work with Paul Heyman as Heyman was the advocate of Brock Lesnar, who Reigns feuded with in the past. AJ Styles claimed that he does not know where WWE is going with Roman Reigns, but definitely wants to see what Reigns does under Heyman’s management.
"Is Brock done? Are we not going to see him anymore? Is his contract up? I don't know. I hear the rumors just like you guys. Everyone always assumes that we know what's going on, but that's rarely ever the case," said AJ Styles on his Twitch stream.

AJ Styles talks about Shane McMahon possibly taking over WWE RAW
A couple of months ago, WWE fired Paul Heyman from his role as RAW Executive Director and replaced him with Bruce Prichard. Since then, 'Brother Love' has been overseeing both Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown. However, according to rumours, Vince McMahon is thinking of making his son Shane McMahon the new head of WWE RAW so that Prichard can start focusing solely on SmackDown.
While talking about the same, AJ Styles claimed that he would like to see Shane McMahon lead WWE RAW. He revealed that Triple H is also the right person for the job, but he’s currently busy with NXT. Styles noted that Shane McMahon gives 100% in what he does and is the man behind some incredible storylines. “I love Shane. There's nobody better,” Styles reiterated on Twitch.
