CM Punk Would Do Cartwheels if AJ Lees Makes WWE Return

AJ Lee’s impact on WWE is undeniably significant, with her departure in 2015 marking the end of a pivotal era for fans who celebrate the Women’s Revolution she helped champion. Her potential return has sparked considerable excitement and speculation among WWE enthusiasts, particularly those following the evolution of the women’s division. Despite the excitement, CM Punk has admitted that he cannot influence or make AJ Lee return to WWE.

Despite her departure, rumors of her return have swirled, especially after she shared a photo of her old ring gear. However, AJ Lee has clarified that she remains retired, much to the disappointment of her fans.

While speaking in an interview with Sports Illustrated Media, CM Punk expressed his excitement about the idea of his wife, AJ Lee, returning to wrestling. However, he emphasized that he would never pressure her into making that decision.

Punk acknowledged that he is a huge fan of AJ Lee and appreciates her impact on the wrestling world, inspiring many female wrestlers today. He mentioned that while he would be thrilled if she decided to come back, he respects her autonomy and would not force her into it.

“You cannot possibly push my wife in any direction she does not want to go. I get this question every single time I’m interviewed — I do not mind because it makes sense to me because I am as big a fan of AJ Lee as your niece or all of her legions of fans. She inspired an entire generation of female wrestlers and I think you’re seeing a lot of them come through NXT, now there’s even some that are on the indies … As a fan, 100%, I would do cartwheels if she came back, but I cannot make her do anything, like that’s not the relationship we have.”

AJ Lee also recently received backing for her return to WWE. Fans are eagerly waiting to see if AJ Lee will make a miraculous return to WWE television. If she does, it will be a dream come true for many including Roxanne Perez and her supporters, who would love to see AJ Lee compete once again inside the squared circle.
