AJ Lee had a very successful career in WWE. At one point in time she was the longest reigning WWE Divas Champion ever, but AJ decided to hang up her boots after WrestleMania 31.
AJ’s book “Crazy Is My Superpower” was recently released, and she’s been doing a lot of interviews to promote the book. Although the book doesn’t focus solely on her wrestling career, she has been answering quite a few questions about her time working in the squared circle. AJ was recently interviewed by CBS Sports about a possible return to the ring and she noted that you can never say never.
“I never would say that because I’ve personally said never to things before and done them. But I am so happy where I am right now and I feel like I had such a pitch perfect career that I would be nervous about tarnishing that. I feel like it’s kind of full-circle and perfect for exactly what I wanted. But who knows?”
The WWE women’s division was very different during her time with the company, but currently the promotion is going through a “women’s revolution” and AJ couldn’t be happier for the ladies that have managed to find success in the ring.
“That makes my heart swell. That’s all I ever wanted for the industry while I was there and for all the wonderful women after I was gone. There are a lot of really great girls who are still there that I was really fortunate enough to work with or have their tryout matches. I just want the best for them and I’m so happy that they’re getting their time. That’s all that we could ever hope or fight for. I’m so proud of them. I hope they’re also getting paid as much as the guys since they’re seen as just as important. I hope that they’re also getting paid because that’s half the battle, honestly.”
