AJ Styles reveals the incident:
The Phenomenal One was the latest guest on Satin’s podcast this week, and the two-time WWE Champion said Joe once put him to sleep with the submission move. Styles said:
“I don’t, I don’t, man, I don’t [know what conditioner I use],” Styles joked. “Did he ever tell you when he finally got the Coquina Clutch on me and totally choked me out? I was out. I went to sleep in a match. Thank God it was the finish because I was asleep.”
