AJ Styles has been one of the most reliable and popular wrestlers in WWE since he arrived on the scene. Styles brought years of main event experience and a huge brand name to the company. AJ’s hard work is now paying off in the form of a huge money deal.
Fightful Select has reported that AJ Styles has re-signed a new deal with WWE. The contract is believed to be worth north of $3 million. AJ’s new deal also includes some extra bus travel accommodations for added comfort.
Sources said AJ deserved every penny. WWE believes Styles will easily make back his contract. WWE believes AJ Styles is a big draw. Sean Sapp filled in the details.
“We weren’t given a time length, besides the fact that it was a multi-year deal. His original contract was set to expire in the Spring/Summer, and would have had him hit free agency for the first time since leaving New Japan Pro Wrestling. WWE expected Styles to have plenty of suitors, and we’re told that as in the case with some other big names in the company, wanted to get Styles’ deal extended before he could even hit free agency to talk to anyone else. Styles is said to be very happy in the company, and has mentioned numerous times that he’d like to work for WWE after his wrestling career.”
Kevin Owens also recently signed a big-money deal with the company. Sami Zayn followed shortly after Owens. AEW was unable to match WWE’s offers as they are currently operating on a tight budget while they await their next TV rights deal.
AJ Styles has said he would be happy with his career if he retired today. The Phenomenal One has thrilled fans for years. The new contract ensures that AJ will be well-taken care of. The WWE Universe will be excited to know that AJ still has some years left.
