Candice Michelle said she believes AJ Styles will eventually make an appearance in TNA, speaking on a recent interview while working in her backstage agent role with the company.
“From what I know of him and the way that he’s spoken about, this was a big part of his heart and building this. So I would imagine that at some point, when he’s ready, that he would make an appearance. I mean, why wouldn’t you?” Michelle said.
She also revealed an awkward TNA AMC premiere night moment — she mistook someone backstage for Styles and introduced herself, only to be told by Styles himself that they hadn’t actually been on the same roster together before. “I forgot we really haven’t been on the same roster together,” she said.
Michelle signed with TNA in March 2026 to work in a backstage capacity as an agent, a role that came through longtime friend Tommy Dreamer. Styles worked for TNA from 2002 through 2014 before moving to the independent circuit and eventually WWE.
