AJ Styles, widely known as “The Phenomenal One,” concluded his WWE career in January 2026 after a final match against Gunther, which was promoted as his retirement bout. Following an emotional encounter, Styles took a moment to thank the fans before making his exit from the ring. Though talks between Styles and WWE about a new contract had been circulating, no agreement was finalized before the Royal Rumble, leading WWE to proceed with this farewell match.
According to PWInsider, discussions between Styles and WWE are ongoing, but no deal has been officially confirmed, leaving the door open for Styles to explore opportunities with other wrestling promotions once his current contract expires.
Unexpected Appearance: AJ Styles’ Dance on TikTok
During the speculation about his future, a rare video surfaced showing AJ Styles dancing on TikTok, catching many fans off guard. In the short clip, Styles playfully nudges a woman before performing a series of awkward, humorous dance moves. He then gracefully exits the scene with a bow. The background music features “Million Dollar Baby” by Tommy Richman, though fans noted this is not the original audio track from the video.
Contrary to some rumors, the woman appearing with Styles is the best friend of his wife, Wendy, adding a personal touch to the lighthearted moment. Unfortunately for fans eager for more, the original TikTok video has since been removed from the platform.
