AEW's blockbuster signee CM Punk has turned down the possibility of seeing his wife AJ Lee lace up her boots again.
Speaking to the New York Post, CM Punk stated that fans wouldn't see AJ Lee stepping foot inside the squared circle again, as he cited her bad neck as the reason she quit wrestling. The former WWE Superstar added that he isn't in favor of risking his wife's health.
“I just want to say, no,” Punk said. “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 rumor right now."
CM Punk's recent breath-taking return to professional wrestling sparked rumors that his wife AJ Lee would follow in her husband's footsteps to AEW. In fact, The Straight Edge Superstar mentioned his wife's name in his promo during last week's episode of AEW Dynamite.
AJ Lee's last match came on an episode of WWE RAW, and the company later officially confirmed her retirement due to the neck issues that prompted her to leave wrestling as a whole.
Wth rumors of her return completely shut down, it's fair to say that AJ Lee has still cemented quite a legacy, as fans will remember her among the greatest Divas Champions of all time.
