During a recent interview with F4WOnline.com, AJ Styles spoke about his departure from TNA, working with Ring of Honor and WWE not making an effort to sign him after he became a free agent for the first time in over 8 years.
Styles said he understands that WWE is pouring tremendous resources into the WWE Performance Center and is focusing on developing younger talent there.
When it was brought up that it would be “unthinkable” 10 years ago that somebody at the level of AJ Styles wouldn’t be signed immediately, Styles replied, “Yeah. Lucky me, huh?”
