WWE Superstar AJ Styles has showcased his skills as one of the top wrestlers globally by performing in various promotions over the years. Styles made his debut in the 2016 WWE Royal Rumble. He engaged in riveting feuds with notable stars like John Cena, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton. Over the years, Styles has solidified his status as a main event performer.
Over seven years, he has amassed numerous accolades, positioning himself as a future WWE Hall of Famer. In a recent interview, Styles revealed that he has one main goal to achieve once again in WWE before retiring from wrestling. In an interview on AfterWords with Johnjay & Rich, Styles expressed his determination: “I need that championship one more time before I call it quits”
Styles previously clinched the WWE Championship twice. His initial triumph occurred in 2016 at WWE Backlash, where he bested Dean Ambrose. He later dropped the title to John Cena in a memorable clash at Royal Rumble 2017. His second reign commenced in 2017 after defeating Jinder Mahal on an episode of SmackDown, spanning over a year before Danielson’s heel turn led to his title loss in 2018.
AJ Styles may be in line for a major match at WrestleMania 40
AJ Styles, determined to reclaim the WWE Championship, recently suffered a setback at the Royal Rumble in a fatal four-way match against Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, and LA Knight. Reigns delivered a devastating spear to Styles, allowing him to retain the title. Subsequently, Styles missed an opportunity to earn a spot in the men’s Elimination Chamber match due to interference from LA Knight.

Styles interfered in the men’s Elimination Chamber match at Elimination Chamber, resulting in Knight’s elimination. This altercation suggests Styles and Knight may clash in a singles match at WrestleMania 40.
