AJ Styles Closes Out 2026 WWE Hall of Fame, Gets ‘One More Match’ Chant

AJ Styles kept his WWE Hall of Fame induction speech short and sweet as the headliner of the show. The Phenomenal One was the final induction of the night at Friday night/Saturday morning’s ceremony, and was inducted by his longtime friends and colleagues Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows.

Styles said that he was going to have a hard time not getting emotional and got a “One More Match” chant from the crowd. He spoke about how much he loved being AJ Styles and said that the other talent all have the same passion. He put over how hard it is to get to where everyone in WWE is, noting that there are more in pro basketball and football than in WWE.

He then said he doesn’t miss wrestling, because he’s lucky enough to go home to his family every night and doesn’t have to miss birthday parties and soccer games, and being a father. He cut to the quick, thanking every promoter he’s worked for and every talent he’s been in the ring with.

Styles spoke about his new new role with WWE and how he was now looking to find the next Phenomenal One. He spoke about his faith and then said he was honored to be a member of the 2026 Hall of Fame class.

PHENOMENAL.
