The return of AJ Lee to WWE has been a topic of speculation ever since her husband, CM Punk, made his comeback. As a former Divas Champion and a key figure in WWE’s women’s division, many fans are hoping to see AJ Lee make a major return to the company, potentially in one of these exciting scenarios:
4. Surprise Entrant in the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble
The Royal Rumble has become a spectacle known for surprise returns, and AJ Lee’s entry would certainly be one of the most anticipated. With her history as a beloved fan favorite, a return in this match would not only generate massive excitement but could also set the stage for future storylines. It would be a major moment in WWE history, marking her first appearance in the Rumble since her departure.
3. WrestleMania 41 Feud with Bayley
Bayley, one of WWE’s top female stars, could be a perfect opponent for AJ Lee at WrestleMania 41. As close friends, AJ and Bayley have a natural storyline waiting to unfold. The two could rekindle their friendship-turned-rivalry, leading to a high-profile match at the biggest event of the year. With Bayley’s multiple championship reigns and AJ’s legacy, this could be a dream match for fans.
2. Teaming with CM Punk to Face Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan
A mixed tag team match featuring AJ Lee and CM Punk against Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan could be a fun and compelling storyline. The Judgment Day faction, which features Dominik and Liv, is currently one of the top stables in WWE. A feud between them and the couple of Punk and Lee would create plenty of drama and excitement, especially given Punk’s previous interactions with Dominik.
1. Managing or Leading a Faction with Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez
AJ Lee has always been an influential figure in WWE, and many NXT stars, particularly Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez, have expressed admiration for her. A storyline where AJ returns as a mentor or manager for Cora and Roxanne could lead to the formation of a powerful faction. This could allow AJ to guide them to success while potentially avoiding the physical demands of a full-time in-ring career. Alternatively, if AJ does decide to wrestle again, leading such a group would be a perfect way to make her return.
Whether AJ Lee returns as a wrestler or a manager, her involvement in WWE would undoubtedly make a huge impact, and her return could open up numerous exciting storylines for both new and veteran superstars.
