Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, featuring AJ Lee and Samantha Irvin.

• With CM Punk’s return to WWE, fans have been wondering if his wife, AJ Lee, might also consider a comeback.

Lee joined WWE in 2009, initially working in FCW and NXT, before being called up to the main roster in 2011. During her career, she became a 3-time Divas Champion, before leaving WWE in 2015 due to health issues.

WrestleVotes recently reported that WWE would be open to Lee’s return, leaving the decision up to her.

In an interview with TV Insider, Cora Jade mentioned that she and NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez are trying to get Punk to encourage his wife’s return:

“I don’t know. I hope so. I’m working on it. Me and Roxy are always badgering [CM Punk] about it. I know he is doing it to her as well, so we’ll see. If it happens, you’ll have to thank me.”

• Former WWE Ring Announcer Samantha Irvin has revealed that she didn’t like announcing in WWE and actually wanted to manage wrestlers or be the General Manager of one of the brands.

You can read some exchanges she had with fans on social media:

Fan 1: “Your untalented husband did this, huh?”

Samantha: “My husband is a millionaire so yes, I don’t have to do a job I don’t like anymore.”

Fan 2: “I can’t prove it but I know Ricochet is behind this because he couldn’t stay in the big league.”

Samantha: “I don’t like announcing. I’m serious! Announcing was only supposed to be my way in. I wanted to manage, maybe even become General Manager one day. But WWE saw no other future for me besides announcer. I love watching the action, but I don’t love being an announcer.

They wanted Rico to stay in the big leagues. I don’t know why everyone is pretending like he was always in great positions at WWE.”

Samantha also thanked the fans for supporting her in WWE:

“Thank you so much, I love WWE and I’m so proud and honored I got to share all the moments with fellow fans. Much love!”
