I've never seen AJ wrestle live so to me it would be awesome if he worked Final Battle.

Not true.

I wouldn't make jokes about false rumors if I was you.

AJ's posted ROH pics on his FB page for the past 4 days. I'm going to predict that he shows up at Final Battle.

I'm gonna be at the top of the mountain in three years, with or without this belt. I'm gonna be the best that ever lived. And what you don't understand is, even if I don't get that far, at least I had the courage to get off my ass and try.

Now that I think of it, AJ fits the "mystery mentor" in role in Cole's blog about as well as anyone mentioned so far. I don't think I'll get my hopes up, but if that's what happens I would be quite happy.

I feel like there is a decent chance we may get AJ Styles vs. Jay Lethal for the TNA World Championship.

It would be awesome, but I think we all know it's Hardy.

If Styles appears in ROH, it's to defend the TNA world title, not be booked in a ROH storyline.

That's his only real Facebook page. Today marks the fifth day he's posted an ROH pic. Before all of the places he's toured he's teased it by posting pics on his Facebook, seems like this is likely. In an interview after his world title win he said he'd like to defend it in ROH.

The Facebook Page is listed as AJStyles.Org, so search for that. It's the real one.

It looks like an "official" fansite, so I wouldn't consider it anything credible. Doesn't look like AJ himself is posting anything. The website it's based on looks real, though.

AJ does in fact have control over what is posted. He monitors updates daily and sometimes posts his own.

It's his FB account. He confirmed this on Twitter.

If all the recent stuff with Davey is true, and Eddie is still booked, we could get Eddie vs. AJ for the TNA Title which would be fucking awesome!

If only Eddie was signed to the WWE, then we could have a modern day Taz/Mike Awesome match.

I think a defence would be a nice move for both promotions to drum up a little attention tbh. Both need it right now.

AJ defending the TNA title in ROH will draw zero attention to TNA. Much like AJ defending in AAA and NOAH drew zero attention to TNA.

Not saying they won't do it, because TNA is pretty stupid, but it will help ROH only slightly and TNA not at all.

It would be nice to see AJ in ROH again, maybe even at Final Battle, but he would either have to show up without the TNA World Title or have him come out with it but not mention it at all. Why would ROH want to mention TNA? Besides, not sure how that would work, considering AJ is the "Real" TNA World Champion and ROH is already doing a "Real" World Champion storyline with Jay Briscoe. It would just be way too confusing.

What difference would it make? Anyone who's heard of ROH has heard of TNA and arent going to start watching because AJ showed up.
