Allen Neal Jones (born June 2, 1977), best known by the ring name AJ Styles (also stylized as A.J. Styles), is an American professional wrestler currently signed to WWE performing on the SmackDown brand, where he is the current United States Champion in his second reign.
Styles, who has long been regarded as one of the world's best professional wrestlers, is widely known for his tenure in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) from 2002–2013, where he was dubbed "Mr. TNA". While in TNA, Styles held the NWA World Heavyweight Championship three times and the TNA World Heavyweight Championship twice. He was also the first holder of the X Division Championship, a title he held six times. Styles is the first professional wrestler ever to complete the TNA Triple Crown (five times) and the TNA Grand Slam (two times). In 2010, Styles became the first ever TNA-contracted wrestler to be ranked number one on the annual Pro Wrestling Illustrated (PWI) PWI 500 list. He simultaneously appeared in Ring of Honor (ROH) from 2002–2006, where he became the first ROH Pure Champion. In 2014, Styles signed with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) and won his first of two IWGP Heavyweight Championships in his debut match with the company, later becoming leader of the Bullet Club. He has also competed internationally on the independent circuit, winning various titles including the PWG World Championship.
