AJ Styles’ contract is coming up in April of next year. So he will be working Wrestlemania at least. He is currently negotiating another contract with WWE.
On the latest audio update of PW Insider Elite, Mike Johnson would talk about AJ’s current predicament. This is what he said:
“AJ’s deal is up in April and traditionally when someone’s deal is coming due they’re not really featured in a major way in a pay-per-view. Although there are exceptions to that. Jeff Hardy being against CM Punk a few years ago and things of that nature and Punk against John Cena where Punk could have left. So there are exceptions to the rule, it’s not a hard-rule.”
“But one would think WWE will start to downplay him a little bit if they don’t lock him into a longer-term deal. Those discussions are on-going now so we’ll see what happens.”
The most likely case will be AJ Styles signing another long contract. Since AJ has had a terrific time in WWE so far and he is sure to have many more matches in him.
