AJ Styles told Tokyo Sports in an interview that he plans to
retire in 2026, although he did not give a timeframe on when
that will happen.
Styles said that the upcoming WWE tour in Japan, set for
October, will likely be the last time he wrestles in the
country, a country he knows too well from his NJPW days.
The former champ added that although it’s not confirmed, he
will probably be at WrestleMania 42 and said that he does
not want to expose a version of himself which does not meet
the standards of AJ Styles.
“That’s the main reason. I decided to retire before my body
stops working,” Styles told Tokyo Sports.
