Gunther talked about retiring Goldberg, John Cena, and AJ Styles

Gunther has retired three massive names over the past year, including AJ Styles. The run started with his successful defense of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship over Goldberg before he made John Cena tap out in his final match in December 2025. At the 2026 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event, Gunther defeated Styles in a match where The Phenomenal One put his career on the line.

Speaking with WWE Retrospective, Gunther stated that AJ Styles is somewhat similar to him in terms of career trajectory. The Ring General said:

“AJ is kind of different, where it’s like, you had Goldberg and John Cena. There was the WCW legend Goldberg, and then you have the guy that [sic] stands for WWE, and then you have AJ, who’s somewhat a little more similar to me when it comes to his career. He had a great run here, but a lot of the stuff that people love him for happened before WWE. He’s one of those guys, what I talked about before.”

AJ Styles closed out an illustrious career, having won multiple World Championships across several promotions.
