AJ Styles’ time in WWE may be over after his loss to Cody Rhodes in the “I Quit” match at Clash at the Castle. During the match, Styles was furious with Rhodes after he lost an earlier match and decided to trick him by pretending to retire. However, Rhodes got the upper hand and Styles was left taking a rough beating. At the end of the match, Styles was handcuffed and threatened with steel steps, causing him to quit.
Wade Barrett commented on the situation, stating that Styles may have no choice but to retire and end his career. Fans noted Barrett’s comment, even if not all of them agreed.
Now that he has beaten Styles, Rhodes may already have his next opponent lined up. When heading backstage after his win, he was confronted by Solo Sikoa and attacked by the rest of The Bloodline.
The upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown should reveal more to the WWE Universe. Styles’ career in WWE is up in the air after his loss to Rhodes, leaving fans wondering if this is the end of his time in WWE.
