Unfortunately, former WWE Champion AJ Styles was injured while competing at WrestleMania 35.
Styles battled fellow former WWE Champion Randy Orton in a singles match at Sunday’s pay-per-view event. The top SmackDown star won the second main card match after pinning him after hitting a Phenomenal Forearm.
Pwinsider.com reports that Styles was pulled from today’s Axxess VIP meet & greet appearance due to an injury. As of this writing, there’s no word yet on details of the injury.
Dave Meltzer reported that Styles is heading home and will not be on Tuesday’s episode of SmackDown Live in Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center. It was added in the report that fans saw Styles at the airport and that the former WWE Champion was moving slowly.
It was noted that fans who had already bought tickets to meet Styles were told that he was removed from the signing due to an injury and that they were offered full refunds.
Fans were also promised of an 8×10 photo of Styles that would be mailed to them, or the chance to meet new WWE Champion Kofi Kingston instead.
We will have more on the injury as soon as we have more details.
