That appears to be the case again, as a recently healed up wrestler is still waiting to make their return.

According to PWInsider.com’s Mike Johnson on his Hotline show by way of Wrestlingnews.co, AJ Styles is ready to return to WWE TV and is merely waiting on WWE to come up with creative plans for him.

Opinion: This is one of those things that continues to surprise me, as you would think that WWE would have had a plan for someone of Styles’ caliber ready to go.

Styles is more than good enough to hang on his own, but now we have to wait for him to have something to do.
