AJ Lee retired from WWE a few days after WrestleMania 31 back in 2015 and has since become a New York Times bestselling author. The wife of CM Punk doesn't have any reason to return to the wrestling ring, but there has been recent speculation that the former Divas Champion could be thinking about returning.
AJ Lee will always be seen as one of the best female wrestlers of all time because she was never a wrestler who adapted to the way women in the company were treated. Lee had a plan going in and never changed the way she viewed herself, which is something that has inspired a number of women.
Heart of the Story!
Carmella's recent post concerning all of the women that she claimed to be better than has started speculation that AJ Lee could be set to return to the company, but according to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, this isn't the case. (Transcript via Ringsidenews)
“They aren’t going to plan that far out in advance. It’s just not how this business works. AJ Lee mentioned in her book that she chose to get out of the ring due to physical issues. It was not an issue with CM Punk and WWE although she probably felt like the child in the middle of a divorce at that point. She was already planning the next stage of her life, beyond professional wrestling. I don’t see her ever coming back.”
Lee is now a New York Times Best Selling Author and is currently working on turning her 2017 memoir into a TV series. Lee has definitely started a new chapter in her life and closed the door on her wrestling career for now.
