AJ Lee Makes Highly Anticipated Return On WWE SmackDown

Her arrival was first set up by surprise appearances from World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch. Sitting comfortably from a luxury box, Rollins claimed that Lynch was there to end the legacy of CM Punk once and for all. The moment The Man got into the ring, however, fans immediately began chanting for AJ Lee.

Lynch chastised the audience for having the audacity to chant someone else's name while she stood center ring. She ran down the entire Chicago sports scene until CM Punk had heard enough and made his way out to address his The Man and his hometown fans.

Punk gave Lynch one last opportunity to walk away, saying he had no beef with her. His issues had everything to do with her 'coward of a husband'. The Man failed to back down. Just like she did this past Monday night on Raw, she began slapping Punk relentlessly. Asking him what he planned to do with every strike before he eventually rolled out of the ring.

The self-proclaimed 'Best in the World' told Lynch this was exactly the situation he was hoping to avoid. He said he would never put his hands on a lady, but thankfully, he knew exactly who to call to back him up.

It was at this moment that 'light it up' came across the loud speakers and former Divas Champion AJ Lee made her first appearance in WWE in 10 years.

The woman who made crazy cool took her sweet time getting to the ring. Trotting down the ramp with her trademark skip and that twisted look in her eyes. She gave a smile to her husband before hitting the ring and overpowering The Man with a series of strikes that looked as crisp as the day she left the company.

With Lynch wobbly from the assault, Lee grabbed a handful of hair, licked her palm and delivered one last hard slap that knocked the Women's Intercontinental Champion from the ring.

Punk and Lee would then celebrate with a hug in the ring with Rollins and Lynch regrouping at the top of the stage as the show went off the air.
