WWE Superstar CM Punk has updated fans regarding AJ Lee’s future.
Lee has long been rumoured to return to wrestling since she retired from in-ring competition in 2015. When Punk signed with AEW after a seven year absence many fans asked whether AJ Lee would follow suit.
Punk addressed the rumours during an interview with Ringside Collectibles, stating that while he doesn’t speak for his wife, she is aware that a return is an option.
“I’m the wrong guy to ask those questions about. My stance—I know there’s a lot out there of that—but I certainly am not pushing her to do anything. I think she knows that there’s options. I think she sees how happy I am and how things are different.
“But if the right situation presented itself, it would have to be a discussion between her and certain people. I don’t necessarily want to be in the middle of that; just because it could get kind of weird. Selfishly, yes, I would love to make out with my wife on television again.”
