AJ Styles Clarifies Twitch Stream, Says “WWE Wants Us To Stream & Interact With Fans”

AJ Styles says WWE wants them to stream & be on YouTube.

Last week, news started going around that WWE did not want their talent to engage with third party brands outside of the company. Some of the platforms that were mentioned were Twitch and Cameo. Over the weekend we heard that everyone was confused and what s going to be allowed and not allowed. The one thing we heard is they can use a name on Twitch for example, that WWE does not own the copyright to.

Tonight AJ Styles went live on Twitch and talked about what is going to be going on with his channel stating the following,

“From the contact that I’ve had and the information I got, WWE does want us to interact with our fans, and that means streaming. They want this to happen. They want you to have a YouTube channel. What we know was a little vague at first, but we’re going to talk about things that need to happen. There were things going on that we knew that we couldn’t do, but times have changed. It’s a weird time. We did different things and it was borderline whether we knew we could do it or not. Streaming is not going to be taken away, YouTube is not going to be taken away. There will be changes in other areas, I’m sure of it, but I don’t know exactly where that is. I’ll say it one more time, WWE wants us to stream and interact with our fans. Don’t stress out about ‘bad guy WWE,’ it’s not like that. Things have changed. It’s a great place to work. I’ll let my own children work for this company.”

You can see the clip of what AJ said on his stream in the video above.

We did also hear Paige and others also say that their channel will not be going anywhere. Some talent like Paige and Mia Yim change their channel names to their real names.
