According to a recent report from PWinsider, AJ Styles will be in attendance. The report claimed that The Phenomenal One will not be active in the ring or even appear on screen. Instead, he will be present backstage, considering that he has been helping with producing some matches in the absence of Terry Taylor, who is recovering from a knee injury.

AJ Styles has ruled out returning to the WWE ring

In a recent appearance on The AJ Styles Show, the WWE veteran made it clear that he was not coming out of retirement.

Styles explained that he was far from being in ring shape. He said:

“No, no way. I mean, I’ll hit the ropes and stuff, and I’ll do a couple of drills, but let me tell you something, our guys in NXT can freaking go. We do about 45 minutes of cardio; we get after it. We do different things; the only way that you can prepare to be in a ring and do wrestling is to be in the ring and actually do it,” he noted.

For now, AJ Styles is more focussed on elevating the NXT talent to their peak.

“We do a lot of functional ring work that consists of blow up drills, because you know in NXT, they’re moving, a lot. Those guys are in tip-top shape, I put it on them because we have to make sure they’re in good shape.”

It remains to be seen what is next for Styles, and if he will ever have another match in WWE.
