Page 3 - WWE Rumor Roundup: 7-time World Champion to miss WrestleMania, Former IC Champion's possible AEW debut date, AJ Styles' injury update

#4 AJ Styles to return soon

The Phenomenal One - AJ Styles suffered an unfortunate injury at the Royal Rumble after he was at the receiving end of a spear from Edge during the 30-man Royal Rumble match.

While initial rumours had suggested that Styles will likely miss this year's WrestleMania, WON have reported that the former two-time WWE Champion will likely be out for roughly four to six weeks only. This would come as great news for all the fans of AJ Styles, as the former US Champion will not be missing this year's WrestleMania show.

Here is what Styles had to say about his injury and the possibility of missing the grandest stage of them all this year:

"I'm not missing WrestleMania. I'll scratch and claw my way there."

AJ Styles is one of the most revered wrestlers in WWE today and it would have been a major upset to have him miss the biggest show of the company this year. While AJ Styles' performance was far from phenomenal this Royal Rumble, we certainly hope that the veteran returns with reinvigorated energy and steals the show at WrestleMania.
