WWE Bombshell: Is AJ Lee Set for an Epic Comeback After Becky Lynch Attacks CM Punk on RAW?
The WWE Universe might be on the verge of witnessing one of the most shocking comebacks in recent history. After Becky Lynch physically assaulted CM Punk on Monday Night RAW, fans are buzzing with speculation that none other than AJ Lee could be making her long-awaited return.
Seth Rollins vs CM Punk: Rivalry Hits New Level
Becky’s husband, Seth Rollins, recently defended his World Heavyweight Championship in a chaotic Fatal 4-Way match against CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight. While Rollins escaped with his title, his rivalry with Punk has only grown more personal—and Becky’s involvement has taken things to another level.
This feud stretches back months. Rollins stunned Punk by cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase to snatch the championship. At Clash in Paris, Punk once again fell short as Rollins outsmarted him to retain the gold. But this time, Punk isn’t just battling “The Visionary”—he’s now up against The Man too.
Becky Lynch Strikes CM Punk on RAW
On RAW, tensions exploded when Becky Lynch interrupted Punk and physically attacked him in front of the live crowd. Punk, showing restraint, refused to retaliate against Becky but promised brutal revenge on Rollins. His chilling words:
“I’m going to make Seth Rollins regret ever cashing in on me… and you’re going to regret putting your hands on me.”
The assault has ignited rumors that WWE could be planning the ultimate twist—bringing back Punk’s wife, AJ Lee, to even the odds.
AJ Lee’s Return in the Works?
According to reports, WWE creative has toyed with the idea of a mixed tag team match at Wrestlepalooza on September 20: CM Punk & AJ Lee vs. Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch.
The timing couldn’t be more perfect. SmackDown this week takes place in Punk’s hometown of Chicago—a city forever linked with AJ Lee’s career. Fans believe this could be the night she shocks the world and steps back into the ring after nearly a decade away.
AJ Lee’s Legacy
AJ Lee, one of the most iconic Divas in WWE history, last appeared at WrestleMania 31 in 2015. A comeback alongside Punk, against wrestling’s power couple Rollins and Lynch, would be the kind of blockbuster moment WWE is chasing as it kicks off its new ESPN era.
If the rumors are true, Wrestlepalooza 2025 could deliver a dream match fans never thought they’d see.
