On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray expressed his belief that AJ Lee should return to WWE to participate in the ongoing feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre.
Ray emphasized that despite the fact that two matches have already taken place, he feels there is still a significant amount of potential left in the rivalry.
Ray’s co-host, Nic Nemeth, suggested that given the extent to which Lee has been referenced throughout the feud, her non-appearance could potentially disappoint the WWE fans.
Ray said, “I want to see Larry bite McIntyre’s ankles and AJ kick him in the balls. I love deep storyline[s] like that, where people [we know] are involved. AJ has not been around in a long time. AJ — a beloved female, beloved wrestler amongst the WWE universe. You bring AJ Lee back into the mix and … the emotion will flood into this storyline like you wouldn’t believe.”
Punk defeated Drew McIntyre in a Strap Match this past Saturday at WWE Bash In Berlin 2024.
Punk and McIntyre are currently 1-1, with The Scottish Psychopath beating the Second City Saint at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
