AJ Styles may still be delivering at a top-tier level in WWE, but The Phenomenal One already has a vision for life after the ring — and it doesn’t involve his trademark flowing locks.
In a recent conversation with Inside The Ropes’ Kenny McIntosh, Styles admitted that once he hangs up the boots, he’s ready to say goodbye to the look that’s defined much of his WWE run. According to AJ, “retirement AJ” is going to look like a completely different guy.
“When retirement does finally come, that will be the first thing that goes is probably the hair… I’m thinking about a full shave. Just go, completely gone, all of it.”
While the idea of a bald AJ Styles might be hard for fans to picture, his wife, Wendy Jones, seems more than ready for a change right now. Styles joked that she’s been pushing for a trim well before retirement enters the picture.
“According to my wife, it’s gonna be cut soon… it’s getting way too long, and she doesn’t like it. She keeps telling me I’m gonna have to cut a couple inches off — not all of it now, but soon.”
Styles’ hair has gone through phases over the years, but the longer look has become synonymous with his run as one of wrestling’s premier performers. Whenever AJ does decide to make the big chop — whether for retirement or for Wendy — it’s safe to say WWE fans will have plenty to talk about.
For now, though, the Phenomenal hair remains… at least until Wendy wins the argument.
