You can never say never in the world of professional wrestling as some notable names have returned this year. For over a decade fans had been hoping to see AJ Lee make her way back to WWE, and the former Divas Champion finally returned to the company earlier this month during the September 5th episode of SmackDown.
It goes without saying that AJ’s return received a huge reaction from the fans in attendance at SmackDown, and she also received a big reaction across social media. Recently AJ Lee responded to the reactions when she posted the following:
