Seth Rollins defended the World Heavyweight Championship in a fatal 4 way match against LA Knight, Jey Uso, and CM Punk at the Clash in Paris event. At the end of this match, Punk was closing in on recapturing the World Heavyweight Championship before Becky Lynch made an interference and helped her husband to retain the title.
Instantly, the fans broke into theories that WWE officials are definitely planning to bring back Punk's wife, AJ Lee, who had been one of the biggest stars of the Divas Era of WWE. Last Monday on RAW, Becky Lynch confronted CM Punk once again to humiliate him. Punk did not answer her much, as if he were waiting for something special.
AJ Lee makes the sensational return on SmackDown
This week, WWE organized SmackDown in Chicago, which is the hometown of Punk, and when all three names that are involved in this feud were present in the show, things became quite clear what WWE is planning. The segment started with Becky Lynch in the middle of the ring and Seth Rollins standing among the crowd.
AJ Lee remained out of action for over a decade
CM Punk interrupted them, and once again, Becky started embarrassing her. At the end of the segment, Punk left the ring and said that he would never hit a woman, but he brought someone who would. The music of AJ Lee was heard, and the fans in attendance went completely wild. AJ Lee appeared in her usual style and ultimately ended up attacking Becky Lynch.
She instantly started a dream rivalry with Becky Lynch upon her return
After a massive beatdown, Becky Lynch finally managed to evade the fight and escape. Overall, WWE did an amazing job booking this sensational return, and it will always be remembered as one of the best returns in the women's division ever. We can also expect a championship match between the duo soon.
But one thing that must be discussed is that Lee clearly looks out of her prime. She was quite slow while making her iconic entrance. She remained out of action for over a decade, and she is 38 right now, so it is pretty obvious. Hopefully, the former three times Divas champion will get back her touch soon.
