AJ Lee in WWE

AJ Lee was one of the most talented wrestlers during her time in the WWE. AJ Lee was a key figure during the Divas era and is known to have been an influential figure in the Women’s division. AJ Lee put on some great matches even against the mediocre opponents during her time. She has been an inspiration to many women wrestlers we see today, most notably Bayley, who thanks the Former Divas Champion for her guidance and support early in her career. Lee instantly established herself as one of prominent women wrestlers on the roster and went on to win the Divas Championship 3-times in her career.

AJ Lee retired from wrestling in 2015 and her final match was on March 30th edition of RAW, where she teamed up along with Paige and Naomi to fight against Bella Twins and Natalya in six women tag match. AJ’s team won the match and after a few days on April 3rd, she announced her retirement from wrestling. AJ had said that permanent damage to her cervical spine had led to this decision.

We’re gonna take it slow. We’re gonna start with WOW. We’re gonna start with commentating and producing, and just one step at a time.”
