  • Good Brothers Say AJ Styles\’ WWE Story \’Not Complete\’ Without Them

    The Good Brothers have made it clear they want to be part of AJ Styles\’ retirement in 2026.

    Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows addressed a potential WWE return on their Talk N\’ Shop podcast, with Anderson stating that The O.C. must be involved in Styles\’ final chapter.

    \”It\’s easy and it\’s safe to say—AJ Styles\’s story inside WWE is obviously not complete without the Good Brothers,\” Anderson said.

    Anderson went further, suggesting that if Styles\’ retirement happens without them, the story isn\’t truly finished.

    \”If AJ goes to his final match, one-two-three, or his final appearance, and he leaves and takes his boots off, tells the fans worldwide that he\’s leaving… and there\’s zero Good Brother involvement? That would mean if that happens inside that WWE ring, I would say AJ Styles is not finished.\”

    The former two-time Raw Tag Team Champions were released from WWE on February 8, 2025. Since then, they\’ve returned to NJPW, debuted for Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling, and made their Pro Wrestling NOAH debut on January 1, 2026.

    Anderson indicated he\’s open to negotiating with WWE for involvement in Styles\’ farewell. \”If there is some kind of deal struck and some kind of Good Brother involvement — there\’s always a deal to be struck,\” he said.

    Styles confirmed on The Undertaker\’s Six Feet Under podcast that his WWE contract expires at the end of 2026 and he does not plan to re-sign, making this his final year as an active competitor.

    The three men shared a long history together as founding members of Bullet Club in NJPW before reuniting in WWE as The Club and later The O.C.
