During an episode of his podcast “Six Feet Under,” The Undertaker expressed his admiration for Styles, referring to him as “The Phenomenal One.” He drew a comparison between Styles and WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels. Here’s what he had to say:
“[AJ Styles] checks all the boxes,” The Undertaker commented. “I don’t know if there will ever be another Shawn Michaels. I put a disclaimer on it, but AJ Styles can work with anybody.

The Undertaker’s 2020 Feud with AJ Styles
The feud between The Undertaker and AJ Styles began on the Road to WrestleMania 36 in 2020. Their rivalry culminated in a cinematic-style match on the first night of WrestleMania.
In a dramatic conclusion, Styles was “buried alive” by The Undertaker, who then symbolically rode off into the sunset. Later in the year, The Undertaker announced his retirement from WWE at the Survivor Series event.
Meanwhile, AJ Styles remains a formidable presence on WWE television and is preparing for his next big challenge. At Backlash France, he will face Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Rhodes, who secured this prestigious title by defeating Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL Night Two, will be a tough competitor. Styles, eager to reclaim a major championship, is fully prepared to confront The American Nightmare at the upcoming event.
