AJ Lee Signs New Contract with WWE (video): 5 Opponents For Her To Face on Second WWE Run

After Lee is done with Lynch, she will step into the ring with other superstars in the women's division. Let's take a look at 5 opponents Lee needs to face on her second run with WWE.

5. Liv Morgan

Both women know something about romantic storylines on WWE televison (remember AJ Lee and Dolph Ziggler or AJ Lee, Daniel Bryan, and Kane?) Before injury, Liv was doing the best work of her career. When she returns from injury, she will be more motivated than ever to regain the audience's attention. A rivalry with AJ will push her to develop new layers of her character while entertaining the fans each step of the way.

4. Roxanne Perez

From an in-ring perspective, Roxanne is like a "modern-day" AJ Lee. Now that AJ is back, Perez — who was 13 years old when Lee left WWE in 2015 — has an opportunity to step in the ring with a legend whose popularity paved the way for her to be in WWE today. If and when this feud happens, it will take Roxanne's career to a new level.

3. Alexa Bliss

Bliss and Lee were around WWE at the same time from 2013-2015 but never feuded on-screen. What Roxanne Perez is to AJ from an in-ring perspective, Bliss might be from a character perspective. She has filled the role of a quirky, bouncy, unpredictable women's superstar since AJ's 2015 leave. Now with Lee back and Bliss an established veteran, an eventual showdown between the two will tell an intriguing story of lovable ladies who wear pink, tilt their heads, and can go crazy in a matter of seconds.

2. Chelsea Green

Can't you hear the crowds reacting to the verbal showdowns, hilarious backstage segments, and athletic matchups between these two? If Green's on-screen partnership with Ethan Page carries over to the main roster, there's the possibility we could see AJ and Punk team up again against Green and Page. A feud with Green would not only bring the best out of AJ's character, but it would position Green in a deserved high-profile spot.

1. Rhea Ripley

This is a must. Rhea is the arguably the most popular star in the company. The story here seems obvious: Ripley and Punk have a well-documented friendship. Rhea looks up to Punk, and Punk thinks the world of Ripley. An "unhinged" AJ would not take kindly to the mutual affection between "Mami" and her husband. If written right, this has the seeds of a WrestleMania headliner.
