SmackDown’s recent episode witnessed a monumental return as AJ Lee re-entered the WWE fold, a decade after her departure. A significant behind-the-scenes moment, shared by Triple H on Instagram, revealed AJ Lee signing her new WWE contract just before her unexpected entrance at the Allstate Arena. The video, with Triple H’s caption, “Ink to paper… the calm before the storm,” showed Lee in a focused and emotional state, documenting the start of her comeback. This behind-the-scenes glimpse has captured fans’ attention, providing a close-up look at the official return of one of WWE’s most admired Superstars. AJ Lee, a three-time Divas Champion, had her final WWE appearance in March 2015. Her return in Chicago added fuel to the fire with the conflict between Becky Lynch and CM Punk. During the show’s conclusion, with Lynch continuing her taunts, the arena filled with the sound of “Light It Up.” Out walked AJ Lee, confronting Lynch, which changed the dynamic of the story leading into Wrestlepalooza. Following SmackDown, Triple H shared photos of himself, AJ Lee, and CM Punk, and at Wrestlepalooza on September 20, AJ Lee is scheduled to team up with CM Punk in a mixed tag team match against Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch.
