AJ Styles is pretty well known in Japan. Styles has wrestled many matches in Japan, and he was not only a member of The Bullet Club, but he was also the IWGP Heavyweight Champion as well. Styles returned to Japan for a WWE live event in Osaka this weekend, and he paid tribute to his buddies in The Club when he wore a mask during his entrance.

AJ Styles faced off against Kevin Owens and he successfully defended his United States Championship, and he apparently took of the mask before the match began. You can check out another photo and a few video clips below.

Speaking of AJ Styles, he’ll be defending the United States Championship against Baron Corbin on SmackDown Live Tuesday night. Styles sent a message to Corbin ahead of their big title match, and Styles sent a message to Corbin by telling him that he’s going to teach him a lesson when they face off on SmackDown.
