Former WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee recently addressed the possibility of working with her husband, CM Punk, again.

Punk left WWE in January 2014, while Lee retired from the company in April 2015. Almost a decade later, the Second City Saint made a much-anticipated return to WWE at Survivor Series 2023, but the 38-year-old female star has chosen to stay away from the wrestling ring.

The fans are eager for her comeback and also desire to witness their on-screen chemistry once more. The WWE Universe impatiently awaits any sign that the Geek Goddess might return to WWE, especially alongside The Best in the World.

AJ Lee Is Open to Working With Husband CM Punk in WWE

At San Diego Comic-Con this week, AJ Lee opened up about the chance of working alongside her husband, CM Punk, giving an honest and personal glimpse into their partnership.

During her appearance, she emphasized the strength of their 12-year marriage, attributing much of their success to keeping their professional lives separate. She also stated that she finds the idea of working alongside her husband “cool.”

She said, “Oh my gosh, I think the key to being married for 12 years and the key is we don’t work together.” Despite this, she left the door open for a potential WWE reunion, noting, “But yeah, it’d be really cool. ‘Never say never’ is what I say to all the things when people ask me where I’m going to work.”

She also praised CM Punk’s current work, both in wrestling and acting, sharing, “He’s a really good writer. He’s a great artist. He’s killing right now — acting and wrestling.”

While a joint comeback is not confirmed, Lee’s thoughtful response hints that anything remains possible in the future.
