AJ Lee’s best friend, Kaitlyn, is ready to return to WWE.

The two met during the third season of WWE NXT and quickly became inseparable. They later debuted on the main roster as a tag team known as the Chickbusters. Over the years, their friendship remained strong even after both stars moved on from WWE.

Lee recently returned to WWE after almost a decade away from the company, and her best friend, Kaitlyn, has said that she is also willing to return as well.

Speaking on her YouTube podcast, Kaitlyn revealed that she almost made a WWE return during the WWE Royal Rumble 2022. However, for undisclosed reasons, the plan ultimately never materialized.

Kaitlyn also shared that she has visited WWE backstage several times to see her friends. She added that she would be open to making a return to the company if the opportunity arises.

I was invited to the Royal Rumble in what year was it? I think like 2022 maybe. And whichever Rumble was in St. Louis. And I was invited as like a potentially like an alternate or something.

So, I went out, and I really wanted to go because there’s [sic] been several times throughout the years since I left WWE that I just went, because they were in the town that I was living in.

Like when they were in, when RAW or SmackDown would come to Miami, I would go down there and see everybody and talk to people that still worked there that I knew.

I was just excited to go to St. Louis and see everybody. It had been a couple [of] years. I think I, so I was on like a backstage segment, but I wasn’t. I didn’t end up, um, participating in the Rumble, but I’m open to it.

Kaitlyn has been away from WWE for about seven years. Her last match for the promotion took place in August 2018, when she faced Mia Yim in the WWE Mae Young Classic 2018. In a recent interview, she stated that she had retired from wrestling.
