During the latest episode of “What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon, Wendy Jones, the wife of AJ Styles sent an emotional message to her husband on all that he has done in pro wrestling and looks forward to the next stage/chapter of their lives together.
Styles lost to Gunther in his retirement match at last Saturday’s Royal Rumble in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
“To my loving husband whom I call Allen and the world calls ‘The Phenomenal AJ Styles’ –
Growing up, who knew I would marry a wrestler? Sure, I would watch wrestling with my grandmother but I never had a desire to marry one. Well, we paid for our small wedding with money made by your short stint in the WCW when you started chasing this dream. You always told me to trust you that you would make it. Never once did you doubt yourself. As your bride, I trusted you and even encouraged you to go when the WWE came knocking very early in your career. I believe that required you to move to Cincinnati. I was in college at the time. As a young married couple, you refused. You chose me. Even when I was pushing you to go, you politely declined the offer.
You always said we would do this together and not apart. Together we have. You have traveled the world wrestling and conquered what many only dream of accomplishing. You have put God and your family first in this business. I truly believe God opened every door and allowed not just you but our family to walk through them. For that, I am eternally grateful. You wanted to beat the house. Well, you did. A phenomenal career. Four amazing and individually gifted kids. And a loving, always supportive wife who has stood beside you the entire time. You won, come home. The phenomenal times are just beginning. I love you, babe.“
Styles said that would be “nothing” without his wife Wendy. He then said that now that he will be home more often, he is looking forward to doing the things they could not do before, which is talking morning walks together and working out together.
Also during the episode, Styles commented on putting his gloves back on, after the match with Gunther.
“Never say never, right? That’s the saying. I know there’s – I think everybody’s allowed at least once coming out of retirement. I’m not saying that I’ll do it anytime soon. I mean, what if my son wrestles? The opportunity to tag with him once. You never know. There’ll be a time when the gloves never go back on and it may be now, but we’ll see.”
Styles went on to note that his second-oldest son is interested in pursuing a career in pro wrestling and is training with him for that possibility. Styles added that his youngest son is the only one of his four children that doesn’t have any interest in sports.
