AJ Styles made his television return to Impact Wrestling this week, carrying his version of the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. Styles interrupted the coronation ceremony of the new TNA Champion, Magnus, which also included Dixie Carter, Rockstar Spud and Ethan Carter III. Despite protest from Dixie, Styles challenged Magnus to an Undisputed World Championship match – two belts, one winner – on next week's episode of Impact Wrestling.

For those wondering, this week's Impact was pre-recorded a month ago. AJ Styles has not signed a new contract with TNA Wrestling, and according to Magnus the deal for next week's match (which has already been recorded as well) is a "one night only" contract to have the blow-off match between the two champions. As of the most recent reports, AJ's deal fell through with TNA, and he will not be making a return to the company any time soon.

I'm confused. Did he return or not?

AJ hasn't returned, but there's still a couple of pre-taped episodes that feature him since he left the company. It's just stating that even though he'll be on TV working for TNA for a short while longer, it's only because of the fact that it's all pre-taped, and he has not, in fact, re-signed with them.

I still can't believe he hasn't been resigned. He is TNA.

^^ Ahh thanks, I got it now.

^ Agreed...

I fucking hate that he's never coming back, but this also means ROH could sign him.
