WWE issues an update on AJ Styles.

AJ Styles returned to the ring on Friday’s WWE SmackDown, taking on Carmelo Hayes in singles competition.

Unfortunately for AJ, the bout was stopped early as he suffered a foot injury. AJ was shown leaving the arena on crutches.

Jackie Redmond announced that AJ suffered a “mid foot ligament sprain” and will have a MRI later in the week.

Coming out of Smackdown last night, I can confirm that AJ Styles suffered a “mid foot ligament sprain” also known as a Lisfranc injury.

AJ will have an MRI later this week to determine the severity of the injury. — Jackie Redmond (@Jackie_Redmond)

I’m a giant AJ mark. I was so happy to see him back as a face, and he looked so fucking happy to be there. I noticed the weird little spin he did off the springboard, but I thought he was just throwing some flavor on it. The foot slipping out from under Carmelo looked bad, but wishful thinking made me believe it was on purpose

I kind of feel like Melo was already gonna pick up the win. He could use a little boost on the main roster. I don’t particularly like his heel character, but he is good at it. I hope he finds his place, he puts on bangers
