After a 10-year hiatus from the wrestling business, AJ Lee made her long-awaited and demanded return to WWE on SmackDown this past Friday. While not entirely shocking — Lee’s return had been alluded to as early as Clash at Paris the week prior — it still felt like a seismic moment. With Becky Lynch becoming entangled with CM Punk and Seth Rollins’ feud, it seemed inevitable that Lee, Punk’s real-life wife, would return to confront the heel power couple.
