AJ Styles honored in WWE Hall of Fame induction on Raw, marking retirement after loss to GUNTHER.

AJ Styles was inducted into the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame during a heartfelt ceremony on WWE Raw in Atlanta, marking the official end of his in-ring career after his loss to GUNTHER at the Royal Rumble. The tribute, highlighted by a video package and a surprise appearance from The Undertaker, honored Styles’ legacy, though it was disrupted by GUNTHER, who interrupted the event, leading to a confrontation and attack by Dragon Lee. Styles reflected on personal sacrifices, including missed family moments, and symbolically left his gloves and jacket in the ring. Meanwhile, Bronson Reed suffered a bicep tear during a match, sidelining him indefinitely and altering the dynamics of The Vision faction. Other storylines advanced, including Liv Morgan’s WrestleMania plans and Brock Lesnar’s open challenge.
