AJ Styles says he has thought a lot about how much longer he plans to keep wrestling.
Styles has been wrestling since 1998, and he has been one of the top stars in wrestling for years. The two-time WWE Champion suffered a foot injury in October, and he was sidelined until he returned at WWE Royal Rumble. He has since moved to WWE RAW.
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, AJ Styles was asked to comment on whether he had thought about how much longer he would keep wrestling.
“I’ve thought about it a lot, much more than I should have,” he said. “I should have known what I was doing by now. But it’s so hard because you enjoy it so much and I enjoy being around my friends. Don’t get me wrong, I love being at home, but the opportunity to see them and see them doing well, seeing them smile, and seeing them grow. Some of these guys like Roman for instance, his selling is on a different level. Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, all these guys, they stepped up. If Roman stepped up, they stepped up with him.
“I just thought that was so impressive that they do that, and seeing them grow into these amazing Superstars. Gunther losing all that weight to get to where he’s at now as the Heavyweight Champion, it’s freaking awesome. Cody, seeing where he’s at and what he had to go through to get to where he was at, and what he’s doing now is at that position, he’s the guy. He puts the work in. It’s really cool to see those guys hustle as much as they are and beat themselves up as much as they have, and still do well. I like seeing that.”
AJ Styles Won’t Wrestle At 50
Styles, who turns 48 in June, was also asked about not wrestling in his 50s. He stated that he would not wrestle at 50.
“That’s correct. I keep saying that,” he said. “I’ve said this and said this, but I will not wrestle at 50, I promise you that.”
