AJ Lee from her days as a Rookie on the all-female NXT season 3

AJ Lee took part in the all-female third season of NXT, in a roster that included Naomi, Aksana, and eventual winner Kaitlyn. AJ Lee is undoubtedly the most successful female to emerge from the WWE Reality show programs, despite her relatively short wrestling career. AJ Lee finished third in her season, behind Kaitlyn and Naomi.

During her tenure at the WWE, AJ Lee was able to capture the Diva's title 3 times, with one of the longest reign standing at 296 days, and the most combined days as champion, standing at 408 days. AJ had some great feuds, including a feud against Paige and the Bella Twins.

However, AJ was probably most notable for her time as the Raw General Manager and for her on-screen relationships with Daniel Bryan and Dolph Ziggler, as well as her real-life relationship with former WWE Champion CM Punk.
