AJ Styles’ forthcoming role on TNA’s AMC channel debut has reignited speculation about a long-discussed contest between him and Frankie Kazarian. Although initial plans hinted at a world title battle, this week’s focus shifted to Kazarian defending his championship against Mike Santana. Nevertheless, Styles’ comeback is a significant moment for TNA, given his strong ties to the organization and the enthusiasm it generates among fans.
Frankie Kazarian Highlights the Importance of Styles’ Return
Kazarian stressed the broader significance of AJ Styles rejoining the roster, emphasizing more than just the prospect of a single match. He described it as
“a great moment for the company”
and praised Styles, saying he
“has never forgotten his roots and he never will,”
noting that many still see him as “the face of this company.”
Matchup Still Possible Despite Current Delays
Although the much-anticipated one-on-one confrontation between AJ Styles and Frankie Kazarian did not take place during the AMC premiere, Kazarian confirmed the idea remains alive. He expressed confidence that all parties are eager to make the contest happen.
“What I can say is AJ wants it, I want it, and I think it’s safe to say the fans want it,”
Kazarian remarked, pointing out that the main obstacle continues to be timing and official approval rather than willingness.
Potential Impact on TNA’s Future Events
This matchup holds considerable potential for TNA, as it could be one of the most significant matches in the company’s current era if scheduled properly. The anticipation behind Styles’ return, combined with Kazarian’s championship reign, fuels excitement for what many believe could be a defining moment for the promotion. Fans and insiders alike are watching closely to see if circumstances will align to bring this duel to fruition.
