Styles appeared at Sunday&#8217;s TNA Lockdown event and announced that he had signed with TNA. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.

AJ debuted roughly four years before signing with TNA, whereas Avery had just three matches before signing his first deal. It&#8217;s a cool signing for TNA, and I look forward to following Avery&#8217;s career.<\/p>\n<p><i>(Jason Powell, founder and editor of ProWrestling.net, has covered pro wrestling full-time since 1997.
