The former WWE star AJ Lee has been away from pro-wrestling for a long time now. Her husband, CM Punk recently made a debut for AEW and the former WWE Divas Champion could also be following him to AEW. She was last seen in action on the March 30, 2015 episode of WWE RAW where she teamed up with Naomi & Paige to defeat The Bella Twins & Natalya in a six-woman tag match.
Britt Baker talks about a potential AJ Lee return; wants a mixed tag-team with Adam Cole
AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker appeared at a Planet Comicon event soon after CM Punk’s AEW debut on Friday’s episode of Rampage. Baker was asked about the possibility of Lee, joining AEW’s women’s division. She is seemingly in favor of the idea. WWE NXT Full Spoilers Stun Adam Cole Fans
She said:
“I was a big AJ Lee fan. One of the first moves I asked my trainer to teach me when I was training was her finisher, the Black Widow. So, that would be really cool. Again, it’s giving the fans what they want. I think for the fans to see both of them [Punk & Lee] in a wrestling ring again in 2021, which is not in WWE…that alone would be evolutionary. So, for that moment alone, I would love to see her in AEW. I would love to see her in the ring with me.”
Baker then also pitched the idea of a mixed tag-team match as she said:
“Speaking of her, I would love to see a mixed tag team match involving her, Punk, me and somebody else [Adam Cole].”
Punk had named Baker as one of AEW’s best young talents in both his AEW debut promo at the United Center and post-Rampage media scrum. He had also begun his promo by saying, “You guys really know how to make a kid feel like Britt Baker in Pittsburg.”
We will see if Lee eventually makes a AEW debut with Adam Cole.
