AJ Styles' Emotional Send-Off: A Star-Studded Celebration on WWE Raw
February 18, 2026
Get ready for a special tribute as WWE prepares to honor former WWE Champion AJ Styles on Monday Night Raw. It's not just a celebration; it's a star-studded event with talent from both rosters in attendance. According to Bryan Alvarez of F4W/WON, SmackDown stars are flying in for this Monday's Raw, indicating a significant, roster-wide send-off for Styles. The celebration is set for February 23rd at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, conveniently located near Styles' hometown of Gainesville. This personal touch adds an extra layer of emotion to what promises to be a memorable night for one of WWE's most celebrated performers.
The tribute comes just three weeks after Styles' loss to Gunther at the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It's a chance for the WWE universe to show their support and appreciation for Styles' incredible career.
But here's where it gets interesting: In addition to the Styles celebration, Monday's show has several other confirmed matches and segments. Brock Lesnar is set to return, and two Elimination Chamber qualifying matches will take place, building up to the Elimination Chamber event on February 28th in Chicago. WWE Raw airs Monday nights at 8 PM ET on Netflix, so mark your calendars for this star-studded event!
