Although many are well aware of AJ Styles' recent 2 matches with WWE, no l3ss, many, many fewer may know that Sunday was NOT actually Styles' debut for the company, but rather his return nearly 14 years in the making.
Well, here we are at the 26th of January 2016, 14 years to the day, since, when back in 2002, Styles' made his actual WWE (then WWF) televised debut on WWF Metal, facing none other than the company's resident superhero, The Hurticane:
Styles would have his second match in the then WWF the following night, January 27th, losing a dark match prior to a SD! taping, to Rico.
