AJ Styles signed a new contract with WWE in March and he apparently feels that he’s going to finish his career there.
In an interview with Newsweek, Styles says, “this contract that I’ve signed is my last.”
“I can tell you that this contract that I’ve signed is my last. This is the perfect place for me to be. It’s family-oriented, I have no problem taking my family to the shows. It’s a PG product, which I enjoy. I’m in the best place I can be for my career.”
There’s no word on how many years he signed for.
Styles was also asked about competition from “new promotions” and the independent scene.
Question: There’s a rise in the independent scene and with new promotions do you feel the WWE benefits from that competition?
Answer: As far as the indies and whatnot, I don’t think they should ever be competitive with the WWE. They should compete with themselves to make sure they get better everyday because there’s no competition, if you want me to be honest. WWE is globally huge. It’s unbelievable to know how big the WWE is. People don’t understand it.
If you want to succeed, don’t compete. Be something different, be the alternative. There’s a lot of people that have a good chance, but competition is always a great thing. I hope any company does well so they can be that competition. Competition will always make a better product.
