AJ Styles made a backstage appearance at TNA Wrestling tapings at Center Stage in Atlanta, Georgia. According to Fightful Select, Styles appeared without orthopedic boot, cast, or crutches, though he indicated his recovery remains incomplete.
The former WWE Champion has been sidelined since suffering an injury during his October match against Carmelo Hayes. His presence at TNA’s Final Resolution event was strictly a backstage visit, with no on-air involvement.
TNA had plans to induct Styles into their Hall of Fame at this year’s Bound for Glory. Styles declined the invitation, maintaining his stance against participating in such ceremonies while actively competing.
The Final Resolution event featured Tessa Blanchard’s return to TNA, where she attacked former Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace before departing the arena.
