With the AEW debut of CM Punk, several fans have been clamouring for his wife, former WWE Superstar AJ Lee, to make her return to pro wrestling.

AJ Lee was one of the bigger names on the Women’s WWE roster back in the early to mid-2010s, and she still has a massive fanbase beyond her marriage to Punk.

Speaking to Joseph Staszewski of the New York Post, CM Punk actually addressed the idea of AJ Lee returning to pro wrestling for AEW, and he said that it just isn’t possible due to her ongoing neck issues.

‘I just want to say, no,’ Punk revealed. ‘Just because [of] her neck. The reason she stopped wrestling is because of her neck. She’s got a bad neck, you know.

“I wouldn’t want her to jeopardize [her] health and neither would she, so we’ll put an end to that rumour right now.’

It remains to be seen if AJ Lee will be used in any capacity in All Elite.
