Former WWE Champion AJ Styles recently appeared on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, where he discussed potential future opponents and his long-term career plans.
When asked about a possible match with John Cena, Styles said:
โI donโt know. I donโt make those decisions. I would love to have it, for sure, itโd be fun.โ
Reflecting on their past chemistry in the ring, Styles added:
โHonestly, I think that thereโs something about, I canโt explain it, why him and I gel so well together. I donโt know what it is, because weโre definitely not the same in any kind of way. It just works.โ
He also recalled his first experience wrestling Cena, calling it a special moment.
โThe first time I got in the ring with him it was like, Wow, dude, that was cool.โ
Styles made it clear he wants the opportunity to work with Cena again, saying:
โSo, yeah, I would love the opportunity to work with Cena again.โ
When discussing his long-term career plans, Styles was definitive about his retirement timeline.
โThatโs correct. I keep saying that. Iโve said this and said this, but I will not wrestle at 50, I promise you that.โ
While Styles remains a top competitor in WWE, itโs evident he is already thinking about the final phase of his careerโbut not before possibly delivering another classic against Cena.
