Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Superstars of 2012

December 24, 2012

Number 8: AJ Styles

One word to describe AJ Styles is a workaholic. Styles rarely takes time off, stays healthy, and will take whatever story TNA gives him. The storyline with Claire was a flop, but not because of Styles. Dixie and AJ continue to try and make interesting storylines for him, but he is much better when given 20 minutes inside of a ring. AJ has had incredible matches all year against the likes of Kurt Angle, Christopher Daniels, and Kazarian. He continues to impress everyone with his ability to adapt to new opponents, and will be a big factor in 2013. Styles had a great campaign in 2012 due to the increased amount of television time he was given. This is TNA’s pride and joy, their farm system type player. I never get sick of seeing him compete because it is always at the highest of levels.

Josh controls most of the creative writing and ideas for the show on a weekly basis, as well as an on-air talent.

Aside from working with WrestleZone, Isenberg began his career in Broadcast Journalism interning at ESPN and worked with CBS Radio for three years. He has also had the opportunity to interview some of the best athletes and performers alive, including Andrew McCutchen, Ben Roethlisberger, Chris Jericho, Billy Gunn, Karl Anderson, Matt Hardy, Steven Strasburg and others.

Currently, Josh Isenberg works for Major League Baseball in their Advanced Media Productions. He grew up in Pittsburgh and went to Point Park University, which is where Chair Shot Reality is filmed each week.

His life outside of his obsession with wrestling include being a savant for Seinfeld, NFL, NBA, MLB and many television shows. He also has an undying love for musicals, which includes many shows he was a part of in high school. Some of his favorite wrestling moments can be linked to such superstars as Edge, The Rock, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels and The Great Khali.
