AJ Styles Getting Close To The End Of His Career

AJ Styles has been in the professional wrestling business for decades now, but it sounds like The Phenomenal One’s career could be coming to an end sooner than later. Styles recently appeared on The Ringer Wrestling Show and he indicated that the end of his in-ring career is getting close.

“I’m anxious to see what story comes next. I’m getting close. I’m getting close to the end. I want to have that story and match to go with it before I leave the WWE. That’s what I’m looking forward to the most.”

The former WWE Champion also indicated that he will be looking to retire completely when he added, “I’m done. I’m going to retire. I’m getting to that point where I am worried about embarrassing myself. My brain says, ‘We can do this.’ My body is like, ‘You’re stupid. We cannot do this. We’re hurting every day when we roll out of bed. At some point, this has to come to an end.’ I’ve realized, like so many others that come before me, the greats, they get out of it when we think there is still time for them. It’s because we don’t want to embarrass ourselves. We’re just trying to get out while we still can where we can still get around and just have fun away from wrestling.

I love it, this is what I do and what I know. I’ve spent more than half my life doing this, but at some point, you have to let go because it’s fun, but I don’t want to disappoint you. When you see AJ Styles, I want you to go, ‘That’s my guy, that’s the guy I know,’ rather than go, ‘He just isn’t the same guy and can’t do what he used to.’ I don’t want to be that guy. I don’t want to let you down. My time is coming. It’s getting short. I am going to enjoy it, I promise you that.”

AJ Styles will be in action at WrestleMania 40 this weekend as it’s been confirmed that he’ll be going one on one with LA Knight at the Showcase of the Immortals.
