AJ Styles revealed that he suffered a broken ankle during Thursday’s WWE live event in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Styles suffered the injury while performing a top rope move.
Just want you guys to know that I’m ok. Broken ankle is what I’m dealing with. No surgery, this just takes some time to recover. This will be the longest I’ve ever been out of the ring. Thanks for the prayers and get well wishes.

Powell’s POV: With no surgery needed, most online estimates for the recovery time from a broken ankle range between four and eight weeks, assuming there was no ligament damage. Here’s wishing Styles the best in his recovery.
Damn no Rumble for Styles then..
Pretty incredible that after all of his years in the ring that this is the longest he’s been out. Shame he’ll miss the Rumble but hope he has a clean recovery!
