WWE’s AJ Styles dealing with non-injury medical issue
AJ Styles has been off WWE Raw recently due to a “non-injury medical issue,” according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio.
Styles and Omos were set to face Raw Tag Team Champions Randy Orton and Riddle for the titles on the October 25th edition of the show, but the match was pulled without explanation.
Styles’ absence hasn’t been explained while Omos hasn’t missed any time.
“I’m sure he’s gonna yell and scream about it at some point, but that is what they (sources) said: a non-injury medical issue,” Meltzer said.
Styles was last in action at the Thursday, October 21st Crown Jewel show in Saudi Arabia as he and Omos were defeated by Orton and Riddle in a title match.
On Monday’s show, Omos cost The Street Profits a win against Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode when he distracted Montez Ford. After the match, Omos laid out Ford, Angelo Dawkins and Riddle with Orton never entering the fray despite teasing that he would.
