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:
“I don’t know. I don’t make those decisions. I would love to have it, for sure, it’d be fun.”
Reflecting on their past chemistry in the ring, Styles added:
“Honestly, I think that there’s something about, I can’t explain it, why him and I gel so well together. I don’t know what it is, because we’re definitely not the same in any kind of way. It just works.”
He also recalled his first experience wrestling Cena, calling it a special moment.
“The first time I got in the ring with him it was like, Wow, dude, that was cool.”
Styles made it clear he wants the opportunity to work with Cena again, saying:
“So, yeah, I would love the opportunity to work with Cena again.”
When discussing his long-term career plans, Styles was definitive about his retirement timeline.
“That’s correct. I keep saying that. I’ve said this and said this, but I will not wrestle at 50, I promise you that.”
While Styles remains a top competitor in WWE, it’s evident he is already thinking about the final phase of his career—but not before possibly delivering another classic against Cena.
