The February 23 episode of WWE RAW went down at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. It was all about AJ Styles tonight in Atlanta, and he had a few special guests who were there to celebrate him.
Prior to his time in WWE, AJ Styles spent a lot of years in TNA Wrestling. He had a ton of stories and became a multi-time champion. During RAW this week, two faces from his past showed up.
Frankie Kazarian is still a TNA Wrestling star. He was on RAW this week as the show centered around AJ Styles. Then Kazarian opened up a closet door and Abyss was standing there.
Of course, Abyss already works for WWE, as Joseph Parks is a producer for the company. He is also heavily featured on WWE Unreal. That being said, Aybss never wrestled for WWE. So, this appearance was a very interesting one.
We will have to see what else WWE does to celebrate AJ Styles’ career. The Good Brothers were also on this week’s show for Styles’ tribute in Atlanta. This was certainly a big night for him.
AJ Styles lost to Gunther at the 2026 Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia. That ended the Phenomenal One’s amazing in-ring career. WWE fans were shocked when WWE announced that AJ Styles would return to RAW in Atlanta.
