put somebody with somebody else

[Kadjar]

Hello,

Is the expression in bold correct and idiomatic?

"It is likely that the company will be looking to use the massive Superstar as a singles wrestler at some point in the next year. The company originally put Omos with AJ Styles so that he could learn from one of the greatest performers in history and he could look even bigger next to him."

It seems a bit vague. You could say "put Omos together with AJ Styles" or "paired Omos with AJ Styles."

For me the original is correct and idiomatic.
