WWE star AJ Styles recently posted a photo on his Instagram account featuring an hourglass with his logo running through it. This sparked speculation in the pro wrestling community about a possible impending retirement.
According to Fightful Select, Styles signed a one-year extension with WWE earlier this year. Sources close to Styles indicate that his current deal is set to expire around February 2026, shortly after the Royal Rumble but before WrestleMania. The report also noted that WWE hopes to retain him beyond that date but will evaluate the situation based on Styles' interest in re-signing.
Ahead of SummerSlam last month, Styles mentioned that his match against reigning Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio could potentially be his last appearance at the biggest show of the summer.
