Update On AJ Styles’ Injury Status Following Royal Rumble Match

AJ Styles did in fact suffer a legitimate injury during Sunday night’s 30-Man Royal Rumble Match. Dave Meltzer has confirmed that the former world champion separated his shoulder while selling the effects of a spear from the returning Edge, late into the match.

As noted, Styles was seen talking to the referee and other Superstars after the incident, with his arm hanging loosely at his side. Moments later, Edge was notified and quickly threw the “Phenomenal One” over the ropes to eliminate him with no struggle – a legitimate surprise to others in the match.

Right now the severity of the injury is unknown, although we have reached out to WWE for comment. A separated shoulder could be good news, relatively speaking. Generally a separation has a much shorter recovery window than a dislocation, and in many cases athletes are back in action in less than two months. Obviously that timeframe puts his WrestleMania status in question.
