From the developer tab on the ribbon (not displayed by default - Office Button > Word Options > Popular > Show Developer tab) select Document Template check 'automatically update document styles' and reattach the normal template normal.dotm. (Having done so, uncheck that check box again).
Select all CTRL+A, apply the Normal style, CTRL+Q then CTRL+Space will remove all manualy formatting and set the style to that defined as Normal. Then ALT+F8 > organizer and delete all the styles except Normal. You will not be able to remove any of the built-in styles.
