AJ Lee Speaks Out After Becky Lynch Hits CM Punk
In a moment that shocked the wrestling world, Becky Lynch delivered a surprise attack on CM Punk during a heated segment on WWE Raw. But what caught fans off guard even more was the response from former WWE Divas Champion — and Punk’s wife — AJ Lee.
Breaking her silence via social media, AJ Lee posted a statement addressing the incident that’s set the internet ablaze.
“Respect in this business used to mean something,” AJ wrote. “You don’t put your hands on someone outside the ring just to prove a point — especially someone who paved the way for you.”
While AJ didn’t mention Becky Lynch by name, fans quickly connected the dots. AJ, who’s been retired from in-ring action since 2015, rarely comments on WWE matters, making her response all the more significant.
“I’ve kept quiet for years, but there’s only so much disrespect I can tolerate,” AJ continued. “Say what you want about Punk, but nobody can deny his passion for this industry. If standing for something makes him a target, then I guess we’re both targets now.”
Sources backstage claim that tensions between Punk and Lynch have been simmering for weeks, stemming from creative disagreements and behind-the-scenes politics. The unexpected physicality, however, has raised questions about whether the feud is real or part of a larger storyline.
Fans are now speculating whether AJ Lee’s statement hints at a possible return. While nothing is confirmed, her passionate defense of Punk suggests she may be ready to step back into the spotlight.
One thing is clear: AJ Lee is watching, and she’s not staying silent anymore.
