TNA president Carlos Silva has addressed recent rumors, sparked by his own social media post, suggesting that WWE star and TNA legend AJ Styles might appear at the Slammiversary Pay-Per-View event this Sunday.
In an interview with Wrestlezone, Silva was asked about his tweets hinting that the event was a tribute to Styles’ well-known nickname. He neither confirmed nor denied the speculation, saying, "It’s just what the tweet says. It’s going to be an incredible night. As you know, ‘incredible’ is a big part of his persona. We believe it will be an incredible show and we’re excited to see how it unfolds."
Silva also praised Styles’ impact on the company, calling him a foundational figure who helped shape TNA’s legacy. He explained that the high demand for Slammiversary tickets led to adding 700 more seats at the UBS Arena to accommodate fans, and that the phrase "incredible night" was meant to highlight the special event being planned.
Though fans continue to speculate about Styles’ possible appearance, he is currently active in WWE Raw storylines, awaiting the outcome of Dominic Mysterio’s medical clearance before potentially challenging for the Intercontinental Championship at WWE SummerSlam next month. This ongoing WWE commitment may affect his availability for TNA’s Slammiversary.
Fan Take: The possibility of AJ Styles returning to TNA for Slammiversary is thrilling for longtime fans, as it could mark a historic moment bridging his past and present wrestling careers. If it happens, this could significantly boost TNA’s profile and excitement around the sport, reminding fans of the enduring legacy and influence of legendary wrestlers.
