AJ Lee’s New WWE Nickname Confirmed After RAW Return
AJ Lee returned to WWE on this week’s RAW episode.
The last time Lee was seen on TV was at WrestlePalooza, where she joined her husband CM Punk in a mixed tag team match against Seth Rollins and his wife Becky Lynch.
Lee was the one who picked up the victory for her team by forcing The Man to tap out to her submission move, The Black Widow. Following the WWE inaugural event, fans were hoping to see more of Lee on TV.
Many even predicted her going after the Women’s Intercontinental Championship, which Lynch possessed. However, she went on hiatus immediately after the premium live event in October and returned to TV very recently.
On the November 17 edition of Monday Night RAW, Becky Lynch defended her title against Maxxine Dupri. The closing segments of the bout saw Lynch attempting to expose the turnbuckle while the referee was distracted.
However, her attempt was rendered unsuccessful as AJ Lee made a surprise appearance on the show. The distraction helped Dupri to capitalize and roll up Lynch for a pinfall victory to become the new Women’s Intercontinental Champion.
WWE Releases New AJ Lee Merch
Following her RAW return, WWE launched new AJ Lee merch on WWE Shop, where the company apparently revealed her new nickname.
While cutting a promo before WrestlePalooza, Lee called herself “Your Favorite Wrestler’s Favorite Wrestler,” and now WWE has officially incorporated the tagline as Lee’s on-screen persona.

After her RAW return segment, AJ Lee met with Jackie Redmond backstage for an interview, where she was asked if she plans to stay for a longer while this time.
Responding to Redmond’s question, Lee teased going after Becky Lynch. Moments later, Rhea Ripley made an appearance and asked to have a word with Lee.
It seems like Ripley could be recruiting AJ Lee to her team for the upcoming WarGames match. If that’s the case, we could see Becky Lynch joining the opposite side.
