Credit to Cultaholic for the following transcription.
“If you backed all the way up to the Royal Rumble, that was our first sighting of him, what if [AJ Styles] would have went over? You just temporarily, just for a moment, moved Roman out of that spot. Now, AJ Styles on his inaugural introduction to WWE, wins the Royal Rumble, goes out and what if he would’ve beat Triple H for that championship and gave him another four to five weeks to get ingrained in people’s psyche,” Anderson said.
This AJ Styles ‘money demand’ backstage just leaked not too long ago. “If you just took Roman and put him aside for a second, and let AJ get over till SummerSlam, could you imagine how hot he would’ve been by SummerSlam? Now you have Roman challenge the new guy, the babyface, AJ Styles and screw him out of it. Now you’ve got that guy that you have today, the heel Roman which I’ve said from day one he should’ve been a heel all this time so that by now, you would’ve had to turn him babyface. You wouldn’t have been dealing with all the backlash.”
