During WWE SummerSlam week, Complex spoke with numerous WWE stars including AJ Styles, Charlotte and Sheamus, and below are some highlights:
Sheamus on who he travels with:
“I travel with Titus and a few other people. I miss Becky [Lynch]. I miss Fandango as well. But I’m focused on my career. I’ve always been successful on my own.”
Charlotte on her draft number:
“I think my pick in Round 1 shows how important women are to the show.
“I was also really happy with Becky being the #1 pick for SmackDown. But she’s my best friend, and we got split up. We did everything together—worked out together, traveled together. That split was really hard, and I’m still getting adjusted to not being with my best friend. But it’s a huge opportunity for her to be over there, and a huge opportunity for me to be on Raw. So professionally, it’s great. And spreading the talent is best for everyone.
AJ Styles on the draft:
“I thought the draft was going well until my buddies [Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson] went to Raw and I went to SmackDown. Those guys are more than just friends. Those are my brothers. We were in Japan together, and then we came over to the WWE together. I was a little heartbroken. We always had fun together, and now I’m driving by myself. Before, those guys kept me awake by being annoying and making me laugh all the time.
“It’s an opportunity for them to do well in the tag division and for me to do well in the heavyweight division. Not having them with me is weird, but I’m really happy for them, because they still have each other.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
