Below are a couple of top news stories of the day, featuring John Laurinaitis and AJ Lee.
• Brie and Nikki Bella’s mother, Kathy Colace, has divorced John Laurinaitis, whom she married in 2016.
The split comes months after allegations in Janel Grant’s lawsuit involving Vince McMahon and Laurinaitis. Laurinaitis was accused of $exually assaulting Grant alongside McMahon, with claims that she was told to visit Laurinaitis at his hotel room before work and “serve herself to him as his ‘breakfast’.”
Laurinaitis initially said he was a victim of McMahon, but later sided with McMahon in attempting to push for arbitration. The lawsuit has been paused while federal prosecutors investigate.
Kathy confirmed her single status on the Nikki & Brie Show, but did not specify when the divorce was finalized. Kathy also noted that she’s not looking to get into a relationship right now.

• There has been ongoing speculation about whether AJ Lee will return to WWE, and the company would welcome her back immediately if she decided to return. Lee, who started with WWE in 2009, became a 3-time Divas Champion before retiring in 2015 due to health issues.
According to WrestleVotes, WWE is open to having her back, but the decision is entirely up to her. WrestleVotes mentioned, “WWE is fully on board. If she calls and says she’s in, they’ll say ‘Yes, what took so long?’ The only people who know the answer are AJ Lee and CM Punk.”
Since leaving WWE, Lee has worked on comic books and wrote a memoir, Crazy Is My Superpower, which is being adapted for A&E.
