Finn Balor says AJ Styles’ WWE retirement made him realize a major thing about his career

During a recent interview on Uncrowned, Finn Balor said that after watching AJ Styles retire, he realized that his time to hang up his wrestling boots was also near.

Balor added that before his retirement, he needed to redeem himself by winning the world title.

“Seeing him [AJ Styles] retire made me realize, ‘Oh, retirement is just around the corner for me, too.’ And you’ve still got this big stain on your career that everyone keeps asking you, ‘What if?”’ And in Belfast [in January], when I lost to Punk [for the World Heavyweight Title], I realized the time is running out, and you need to fix this quickly. So that’s what I’m trying to do. I need to right the wrong of what happened 10 years ago — not for me, but for everyone else,” he added.

It remains to be seen what WWE legend AJ Styles has planned for his future in the pro wrestling world.
