Similar to Joe Hendry popping up at Clash at the Castle, this may well be null and void if the main roster won't be getting involved in whatever NXT has planned with TNA in the months ahead.

However, it's fun for fans to imagine a scenario in which a TNA original such as AJ Styles returns to his old stomping grounds after over a decade away for a final run or match before he hangs up his boots for good.
