Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, featuring AJ Styles, Charlotte Flair & Andrade.

• AJ Styles made his return to WWE programming during the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble, entering at #21 after recovering from a Lisfranc injury he sustained in October.

Wasting no time, Styles targeted top names like Roman Reigns, John Cena, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins, showing no signs of rust. However, his WrestleMania 41 aspirations were cut short when Logan Paul eliminated him from the match.

In a backstage interview with Cathy Kelley, Styles didn’t hide his frustration about being ousted by Paul. “I don’t know if I’ll ever live that one down,” he admitted with a smirk.

When Kelley pointed out that Paul also eliminated CM Punk, Styles responded, “Well, at least I’m not the only one dealing with this humiliation.”

Despite the setback, Styles remained optimistic: “I got in there with some of the best, I held my own, and I showed the world that AJ Styles is still phenomenal.”

PWInsider reports that there was backstage chatter at the Royal Rumble about AJ potentially moving to the RAW brand in the coming weeks. While WWE’s specific plans for him remain unclear, this move could signal a fresh direction for The Phenomenal One as he heads into the WrestleMania 41 season.

• Charlotte Flair is back in the spotlight, not just for winning the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble but also because she’s officially single.

According to TMZ, Flair filed for divorce from Andrade in June 2024, with the split finalized by October. Neither has publicly commented on the breakup, and details about the cause remain private.

Their romance began in 2019, leading to an engagement in 2020 and a grand wedding in Mexico in 2022.

Fans had speculated about trouble when Flair stopped posting photos of Andrade on social media. In 2023, breakup rumors intensified after they unfollowed each other online, Ric Flair stopped following Andrade, and Charlotte removed the diamond ring emoji from her bio.

Despite reconciling shortly after, supporting each other’s careers with subtle in-ring nods, it’s now clear the relationship didn’t fully recover.
