Lee’s return has been a talking point since her departure from WWE in 2015. With years of tension between WWE and her husband CM Punk, many believed she would never step back into a WWE ring. Now, not only is she back, but a new contract ensures fans will be seeing much more of AJ Lee on WWE programming.
Despite her decade-long absence, Lee’s bond with wrestling fans never faded. With her in-ring return just days away, the former Divas Champion remains deeply appreciative of those who have supported her every step of the way.
