Is a WWE return becoming likelier for AJ Lee? That's the report coming from Fightul Select's Sean Ross Sapp who was recently asked about the chances for AJ Lee to join her husband CM Punk in the WWE:

“It has significantly improved from what it was prior, she has shown willingness to participate in some wrestling stuff, as she was the face and sort-of living mascot for the WOW Women of Wrestling company.”

Although Lee hasn't wrestled since she left the WWE in 2015, her popularity hasn't diminished. Lee's potential return to wrestling has been a hot topic for years. When CM Punk debuted in AEW, fans debated whether Lee might join him there.

While it's unknown whether AJ can still wrestle (one of the reasons she left the WWE in 2015 was reportedly due to a concerning injury) there are many roles she could fill. AJ Lee's talents on the microphone and her charisma make her an easy choice for an announcer, manager, or some other personality.

A Woman in High Demand

Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp noted why Women of Wrestling hired AJ Lee and how she was received there:

“They wanted her, because they wanted people to go, ‘oh, AJ Lee is on this show in some capacity.’ She did it, she made some good money doing it, and she was well-liked there from what I understood."

Sapp's report also strongly suggests AJ Lee is in high demand in the WWE:

There are a whole lot of women in WWE who would love to wrestle AJ Lee, be on-screen with AJ Lee, so I know it’s something that several women there would be open to.”

H/T Ringside News for all quotes

If Dave Meltzer's report that CM Punk could drive up the value of RAW's TV rights, adding AJ Lee could also help.

Do you think AJ Lee will return to the WWE? Would you like to see her return?
