With news that AJ Styles is a free agent come middle of the month, if he and the WWE agree on a deal, how would you introduce him? Where do you see him on the card and who would you like to see him feud with?
I think it'd be ridiculous to try to repackage him or feign ignorance as to who he is. He's been the face of TNA for years and a well-known commodity on the indie scene well before that. If he wants to keep the "AJ Styles" name, then simply bring him in as Allen Jones.
I'd run a series of vignettes prior to his debut while he maybe spends a couple of weeks at the Performance Center getting used to WWE style and, since he can't talk, I'd have him come in as Paul Heyman's newest client, billing him as the hottest free agent on the market and immediately position him in the upper midcard.

I would have him come out on RAW and challenge John Cena, claiming to be on the same level. I'd have Cena beat Styles in five minutes, clean.. Then, I would have him reprise his role as Christian's lackey.

New Sin Cara.
And yes, I know he has a giant "AJ" tattoo. It won't be covered up or hidden at all.

Miz or Del Rio issues an open challenge in a smarky market like NYC or Chicago. Styles surprise debuts under his real name Allen Jones and gets the upset win. After that, for the next 2-3 months he's in developmental, appearing a couple of times a month on Raw or Smackdown to keep his name out there and have a mini-feud with Miz/Del Rio/whoever he beats in his debut. This way, he can have a surprise debut to get a big reaction from a crowd that knows who he is, and he can get acclimated to the WWE style gradually by working in developmental. Eventually he comes up for good and has a lengthy showcase feud with Seth Rollins to really establish himself.

Re-name him Chancellor Gunston, giving him a gimmick of a Catholic Priest. He thinks he's a face and spends his promos doing sermons about how the world is now full of filth and that he has come to save the WWE from Sin. He considers Triple H to actually be the King of Kings and Vince, God while seeing Daniel Bryan as Satan and CM Punk as the anti-Christ. His finishing move is no longer the Styles Clash but rather a rear naked choke that he holds on after the bell and the announcers see this as him being "aggressive" with Styles defending it by claiming he's simply baptizing them to the light.

It would book itself. Have weeks of vignettes, followed by a surprise debut at a major PPV where he defeats Cena for the title.
Instant impact.

Him and Lee would fight over the rights to "AJ". Booker/Johnson style.

Him and Santino as Perfect Strangers characters. Santino as Balki, Styles as Larry Appleton.

If Sting won't face the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, I guess Styles will have to do.

Rollins and Reigns are in the ring and they call out Ambrose.
"You know Dean, you made us a lot of promises before this whole thing started. You said you'd lead us to the top, lead us to glory but we've been thinking that for all the talk we can only see gold around one of our waists."
Ambrose can then try and worm his way out of it. But to no avail.
"We've decided that since guiding the Shield to the top seems to be beyond your puny capabilities, we've decided to do a little recruitment of our own"
*MUSIC HITS*
*It can't be it.....it is...it's AJ Styles. What's AJ Styles here for? Has he joined forces with Rollins and Reigns? Is he....he is the new leader of the Shield?"
....AJ comes to the ring says something like "Dean I want to tell you I have tremendous respect for everything you've gone. I've watched from afar and you've guided this group to new heights. Problem is; we want to go further and when my good buddies Seth and Roman called me down in Florida and we discussed a few ideas, we discussed a little business proposal and unfortunately Dean, whichever way we calculated it - we couldn't make you fit"
...beat down.
So end result is AJ Styles is the new leader of the Shield and he can have a first PPV 'introductory' match with Ambrose just to close that particular chapter and the new Shield will be AJ, Rollins, Reigns

Debut him on Raw, have him beat mid-card jobbers for a few weeks, put him on Superstars and the filler match on Main Event since they're too stupid to book a potential money-maker like Justin Gabriel, let alone AJ Styles.

Book him in a way that helps increase his following in the gay community.

Stuttering gimmick and his first feud is with Jerry Lawler,who defeats him in a 'Kiss My Foot' match. Triple H comes out and Pedigrees him after the match.

He'll debut as the crazy ex-boyfriend of AJ Lee. It'll explain the stupid tattoo.
