WWE SmackDown superstar AJ Styles responded to recent reports about his potential Hall of Fame induction in TNA Wrestling. Styles, who has enjoyed a successful career in WWE, initially made his mark in the promotion before joining the global giant.
The Phenomenal One spent twelve impressive years in TNA, where he established himself as one of the promotion’s top stars. This year, WWE and TNA Wrestling formed a working relationship, allowing NXT stars to appear in TNA and vice versa.
Following the successful partnership, fans began to speculate whether AJ Styles would make a crossover appearance in his former promotion. Recently, reports emerged that the pro-wrestler was in consideration for this year’s TNA Wrestling Hall of Fame induction.
However, much to the surprise of the fans, WWE was asked about this opportunity but decided not to go for it. The reports also did not give any specific reason behind this decision. However, the Phenomenal One has clarified the situation.
