The Styles family name is particularly familiar to TNA fans because of AJ Styles’ lengthy history with the promotion. AJ Styles worked for TNA from 2002 to 2014, establishing himself as one of the company’s most important stars during that period.
During his time with the promotion, AJ Styles captured multiple championships, including the TNA World Championship and the X Division Championship. His performances helped establish him as one of the defining talents of TNA’s early years and played a significant role in building his reputation before his eventual move to WWE.
Now, more than a decade after AJ Styles’ TNA run came to an end, his son is beginning his own journey with the company. Avery will have the opportunity to build a name for himself while carrying a surname that already has considerable history in TNA.
Avery Styles begins his own wrestling journey
Avery’s TNA signing comes at a significant moment for the Styles family. Earlier this year, WWE announced that AJ Styles would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the 2026 class, recognizing a career that included two WWE Championship reigns and Grand Slam Champion status.
AJ Styles has shared the ring with some of WWE’s biggest names, including The Undertaker, John Cena and Roman Reigns. His rivalries and championship success helped define a major era of WWE programming and cemented his status as one of the company’s headline performers.
Avery now has the chance to establish his own identity in professional wrestling. While his family connection will naturally attract attention, his TNA run will ultimately be judged by what he accomplishes inside the ring.
