Plenty of people want to see AJ Lee return to the ring, Naomi included. So much so that she “can’t retire” until it happens.
Naomi, one-half of the current WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, shared her thoughts on Lee potentially returning to the company. While speaking to Justin Dhillon of The Wrestling Classic, Naomi shared that she’s been harassing AJ Lee’s husband CM Punk about Lee making her in-ring return to WWE.
“Of course [I want to see AJ Lee come back to wrestling in WWE]. I be harassing her husband [CM Punk] about that all the time. And I told him. I said, ‘You need to tell her I can’t retire until she comes back.’ Girl, you need to come on because my whole back is hurting… I can’t retire until she comes back. I am so for real and she knows it.”
During the same interview, Naomi shared her thoughts on the recent chatter about AJ Lee returning to WWE at the Royal Rumble. She also mentioned that if the former WWE Divas Champion returns to the Stamford-based promotion it will be like a gift for the current members of the women’s roster.
“I mean, it’s crazy for her to be gone for over a decade and still be missed and to still be wanted so bad. I think it speaks volumes and just tells you what she did for women’s wrestling and who she was. I think we will all be… It will be a treat, a present, a reward, for all of us having her come back. Even if it’s just a, ‘Girl, hey bye.’ And a quick little… We just… Umm… We… We starving sis,” Naomi said.
