AJ Styles’ Mysterious Absence

AJ Styles has not been seen on WWE programming since WWE Clash At The Castle: Scotland PPV in June. He unsuccessfully challenged Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at the show.

The former world champion had continued competing at live events. He even traveled with the roster when they made the trip to countries like Japan, Belgium, and Germany. During this time, AJ also made a rare non-WWE appearance, competing at the NOAH Destination event on July 13.

The unexplained absence resulted in much speculation and rumors about the status of the high-flying star. Fans began to wonder if Styles would also be let go from the company like Bobby Lashley when it was revealed that his contract was set to expire later this year.

The announcement of his return, however, confirms that the officials have plans for the wrestling veteran yet and they will likely re-sign him before his deal ends.
