AJ Styles is winding down his phenomenal career. Styles, who wrestles John Cena at WWE Crown Jewel, recently confirmed he will retire from professional wrestling in the next year.
Styles, 48, is beginning his countdown towards retirement. As Styles prepares to wrestle Cena on the latter's farewell tour , he admits he'll soon hang up the boots himself.
"I will definitely retire within the next year," Styles told Tokyo Sports (translation by Pro Wrestling Net ). "I don't want the fans to see me as anyone other than AJ Styles. That's the main reason. I've decided to retire before my body can no longer move."
Styles expects to perform at WrestleMania next year, but said his involvement is unconfirmed. The two-time WWE champion has ambitions to work with WWE as a producer or trainer
