He told me, like, I don’t owe anybody anything, and I don’t have to stick in something that’s no longer serving me, and that really stuck with me," she mentioned.Albert Clark @AlbertClar47524LINKHASHTAG A J Lee needs to come back to WWE to help CM PunkBecky Lynch slapped CM Punk several times this past Monday night on RAW, and he warned The Man that she would regret putting her hands on him.
