A new report from PWInsider Elite has shed some light on the situation with AJ Styles following his final match with WWE.
It was stated that Styles had been in talks with the company for a new contract, but the approaching Royal Rumble saw the two sides not reach a deal before going forward with the match against Gunther.
The former WWE Champion notably had the idea to end his career at the Rumble, marking the same event he made his WWE debut in 2016.
Styles and WWE are reportedly still discussing his future with the company, but there has been no word on a new contract being signed.
It was further noted that while Styles would be free to explore outside options if he becomes a free agent, there has not been word that he is interested in getting back in the ring in the near future.
