If there was any doubt AJ Lee would be returning to WWE to partner husband CM Punk against Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch, F4WOnline.com’s Bryan Alvarez confirmed ended it in a report on Tuesday.
Lee has not wrestled a match for WWE, or appeared on company programming, since March 30, 2015.
She retired from the squared circle the following week and embarked on a career away from professional wrestling, where she became a writer, advocate, actress, and producer, often pairing with friend and actress Aimee Garcia.
Still, despite the success she enjoyed beyond the pro wrestling bubble, fans have longed for one last in-ring appearance from the future Hall of Famer.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported: “We were told this isn’t necessarily a one-off, and that WWE hopes that they can do more with her, but even if that’s it, they’re happy to have her involved again.”
Regardless of whether she returns for one match or several, having Lee back will be more than enough to whet the appetite of fans who have missed the revolutionary women’s performer over the last 10 years.
