After CM Punk made his long awaiting return to pro wrestling, fans began to ask if his partner and former WWE Superstar AJ Lee would follow him to AEW.

AJ Lee was one of the bigger names on the WWE Women's roster back in the early 2010s, and fans have been clamouring to see the former WWE Divas Champion back in action.

Unfortunately, it appears as though we won't be seeing Lee appearing in-ring for All Elite Wrestling any time soon.

Speaking to Joseph Staszewski of The New York Post, CM Punk revealed why we won't be seeing AJ Lee make her way to the AEW Women's division.

“I just want to say, no. 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.”

AJ Lee has not wrestled since 2015, with her last match coming on the March 30th episode of Monday Night Raw.

Lee finished her WWE career as a 3-time Divas Champion, 3-time Slammy award winner and she also held the FCW Divas Title once during her time in developmental.
