Is the Phenomenal One’s WWE Exit a Work or Legit?
In recent months, fans have said goodbye to many of their favorite superstars, like R-Truth and Karrion Kross. However, in recent interviews on “Monday Night Raw,” A.J. Styles has repeatedly said next year's Summerslam will be my last, and WrestleMania 42 might be my last. Styles is currently in a feud with Dominik Mysterio to chase his second Intercontinental Championship. According to Bleacher Report, Styles signed a one-year contract extension with WWE and plans to retire from professional wrestling before the age of 50. Which begs the question, why is Styles explaining to the WWE universe his last match? This explains his absence from WWE programming since WrestleMania 41 against Logan Paul.
This has fans circling around with questions, asking who is left to face A.J. Styles after a five-star classic battle against Logan Paul. The Phenomenal One shows he’s still got it after two decades in professional wrestling. Now, several reports indicate John Cena will be added to a list of opponents Styles has left. With Cena’s retirement tour on a strong effect, the chemistry between the two former rivals will bring fans to the edge of their seats. The anticipation of Cena writing his retirement tour brings questions to mind, with old rivals coming for one more match.
Right now, the fans wonder with anticipation who Styles next opponents will be after feuding with Dominik Mysterio. The Phenomenal One continues to show five-star classic battles, proving he’s still got it, delivering top-tier performance in his late 40s. However, fans wonder who is still out there that can challenge the Phenomenal One, can bring exciting outcomes. Now that fans are possibly gearing up for one last match, it brings to mind who WWE will write to feud with Styles.
Fans speculate WWE will bring to their attention for a feud between A.J. Styles vs. CM Punk. While fans have hinted at the possibility of a dream match for Styles vs. Punk, the timing would be perfect for his last match in WWE. This leaves fans wondering, with Punk’s grappling ability and Styles’ incredible agility in the ring, WWE could give us one of the most memorable rivalries in the past two decades of Styles’ in-ring career. Overall, many dream opponents are rising that WWE could go with, ending Styles’ in-ring career.
