They never have them on a 1 on 1 match, not even on house shows. And in that one rumble when aj and aries had a face to face, Tazz said "this is dream match up right here", so they clearly realize people want to see this match in TNA. But they havent pulled the trigger yet on this match up, when do you think they will?

I thought they were oing to do at this years BFG, but they went with Aries vs Hardy instead. Will they have this match at next years BFG? or next years slammiversary?

would be a boring build up if they were both face, one needs to be a heel, I would say Aries

I would love to see this match especially with a good amount of build toward a PPV showdown. I agree with the people saying it would be more ideal to have one of them work as a heel and that man is preferably Austin Aries since the role comes natural to him and AJ is such a tremendous babyface worker. I think the match could be one of the best matches in TNA if they decide to build it.

I could see it happening at either Slammy or BFG. Or maybe Destination X. Regardless both guys are two of the most consistent workers TNA have and I've no doubt that when they have a match in TNA it'll be awesome. Aries I think works better as a heel too even though he's had some pretty great face performances this year. I just hope they don't try and rush it onto some B PPV because I think it could spark quite a bit of interest to pit them against one another.

I know they had a match in ROH in about 2005 if anyone's interested although I haven't got round to watching it. If I recall correctly it should be in the media section.

Agree with most in that a) this is a TNA dream match and b) would like to see heel Aries vs face Styles as both are best suited to those respective roles.

Destination X - AJ Styles vs Austin Aries

Destination X - AJ Styles vs Austin Aries
This. With AJ as the XD champion after he captures shortly before to take advantage of Option C. Only once he wins thay strap he will become reluctant to cash in realizing how much it meant to him...Aries will talk him into it stating he understands the importance of that title and the prestige it holds but its time to give the fans the dream match they deserve.

It makes more sense on the B show that emphasizes the XD to try and pop the buyrate by selling the "dream match".

It didnt dawn on me, but yeah, this would be as close to a dream match that TNA can get. AJ Styles versus the new generation AJ Styles, Austin Aries. It wouldve been much better than Austin Aries vs Jeff Hardy, which doesnt really do much for me. I get why they want the name Jeff Hardy on top, but at this point, it doesnt seem to be drawing any viewers regardless of the name on top.

Actually they did have a 3-way match at a recent Gainesville, GA house show with Daniels. But yeah this is definitely the TNA dream match and it's special because they have never faced each other in TNA. It's a Bound For Glory worthy match but that's a year away, though I could totally see TNA keeping them apart for a full year until their eventual BFG match. They could have it at Slammiversary next year or Destination X, when Styles works his way up the X-Division and wins the title and uses Option C to cash in the X-title for a World Heavyweight Championship match.

turn Aries heel and then have him face AJ - doesn't have to be for the title and just a feud over who is the best wrestler in the company

Wembley in January would be my choice considering I'm there! jokes aside though try to save it for one of the bigger ppvs next year

I would fucking mark to see Styles hit the pele on Aries, followed by the Styles Clash, then the spinal tap, and just for shits and giggles have him spike powerbomb him on his neck for good measure.

For me personally and in a perfectly booked world i would love to see Austin Aries reveal himself as the leader of Aces and Eights at Bound For Glory after they help him beat Jeff Hardy in the main event. Then at Turning Point we get Hardy/Aries for the World title again with Austin Aries again getting the win and then over the course of the year Austin Aries feuds with Sting, Kurt Angle, Samoa Joe, James Storm and Ken Anderson with maybe a three or four month feud with Samoa Joe in which they trade the World title at least once to break the reign up.

Whilst Austin Aries is ruling TNA with the help of Aces and Eights which consist of Matt Morgan, Mike Knox, Chris Masters, Wes Brisco, Jay Bradley and Luke Gallows we also see AJ Styles end his feud with Christopher Daniels at Turning Point and then finish up with Frankie Kazarian a couple of months later at Genesis. After that and over the course of 2013 AJ Styles feuds with Bobby Roode and Bully Ray before feuding with members of Aces and Eights like Matt Morgan, Mike Knox and Chris Masters whilst also winning The Bound For Glory Series at No Surrender which is also the PPV that Austin Aries regains the World title from Samoa Joe at.

So after a year of where the feud is teased this then sets up AJ Styles/Austin Aries for the World title at Bound For Glory in 2013 in what is considered the biggest dream match in TNA since Samoa Joe/Kurt Angle back in late 2006. Because of how fresh the feud is TNA could book the feud to last three or four months with AJ Styles winning at Bound For Glory, Austin Aries winning at Turning Point in a Ladder match, AJ Styles winning at Final Resolution in a Full Metal Mayhem match and then AJ Styles winning again in an Ultimate X match to end the feud.
