The current WWE Intercontinental Champion claimed that his mind and body are not on the same page. “Many times my body and my mind argue with each other because my head tells me I can do it, and my body tells me not to even try,” he added. AJ Styles revealed that The Undertaker went through the same situation at the end of his career while also reminding everyone how much he loves competing inside the wrestling ring.

AJ Styles was then asked about the Undertaker and whether he would want to defend his title against The Phenom if he decides to come back from his retirement. AJ Styles said that he would love to face the Undertaker again in the WWE ring. Though he was sceptical about The Undertaker accepting the proposal, AJ Styles revealed that he would not hesitate to defend his title in front of a filled arena. AJ Styles ended the answer saying that he respects The Undertaker's decision to hang his boots and feels that the 'Deadman' has earned the right to put a stop to his career.
