– AJ Styles has reportedly signed a one year deal with New Japan Pro-Wrestling and is expected to make his debut in some form on their Invasion Attack iPPV which takes place on April 6, the day of WrestleMania, that will be airing at 8am EST in the States.

Whereas Styles’ ROH deal prevented him from making appearances on other promotions TV shows (such as Impact Wrestling for example) this deal means he’s unable from appearing on any major promotions events without the consent of NJPW, which theoretically means a TNA return is not on the cards.

Dave Meltzer noted that Styles will still be appearing for ROH, and while under contract with NJPW won’t be featured on all tours. This opens him up for more ROH dates and will further NJPW and ROH’s working relationship.
