Fightful Select has since reported that WWE sources strongly hinted AJ Lee will appear on SmackDown in some capacity — either as a full return or as part of a major tease leading to her comeback. While no official confirmation has been made, the outlet also noted that the company wants her run to be more than a one-off appearance.

Adding to the speculation, CM Punk posted a cryptic Instagram story featuring a devil cartoon with the words: “Okay… you asked for it.” The move has fans convinced that his wife’s in-ring return is imminent.

Lee, a three-time Divas Champion, has not competed in WWE since 2015. If reports are accurate, her return would mark one of the most anticipated comebacks in recent WWE history.
