WWE NXT star Lexis King has shared that WWE Hall of Famer AJ Styles is his new personal 1 on 1 coach at the Performance Center.
AJ Styles’ wrestling career came to an end back at the Royal Rumble event in Riyadh in January, when he lost a match to Gunther with his career on the line.
There had been speculation about AJ’s future following his loss, but AJ has since been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, as well as signing a new contract with the company to work with the company at the Performance Center.
AJ has taken up a role as a talent scout, and he seems to now also be a trainer at the PC.

More WWE Stars To Join NXT’s Birthright Faction
Lexis King is currently the leader of the newly formed Birthright faction on NXT television, consisting of second generation talents Uriah Connors, Charlie Dempsey, Arianna Grace and Grace’s fiancee Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo.
While the group has already been featured quite strongly on NXT television, there are more names currently at the Performance Center or available to NXT that could also be added to the group.
The most obvious choice being Brooks Jensen, the son of former WWE star Bull Buchanan, who teamed with King regularly on NXT live events prior to the Birthright faction officially debuting on NXT television.
If the group was to recruit a new face that has yet to appear on NXT television, Jacob Henry, the son of WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry is also now signed to the Performance Center, as well as Evander Holyfield’s son Elijah Holyfield for a more outside the box choice.
As for women’s additions, one name who has teased potentially joining the group is TNA Knockout Xia Brookside, who recently turned heel on her former partner Lei Ying Lee.
