Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving CM Punk, AJ Lee and Jade Cargill.
• During an interview with The Wrestling Classic, Women’s Tag Team Champion Naomi was asked if she wants to see AJ Lee return to WWE.
Here’s what she said:
“Of course. I be harassing her husband (CM Punk) about that all the time. I told him, I said, ‘You need to tell her I can’t retire until she comes back.’ Girl, you need to come on because mama’s back is hurting. I can’t retire until she comes back.
I’m so for real, and she knows it. It’s crazy. For her to be gone over a decade and to still be missed and to still be wanted so bad, I think that speak volumes and just tells you what she did for women’s wrestling and who she was.
So I think it’d be a treat, a present, a reward for all of us, having her come back, even if it’s just a ‘hey and bye,’ a quick little (appearance). We starving, sis.”

• Jade Cargill is staying active in training as she prepares for a return to WWE TV.
After being written off SmackDown in November due to a mystery attack, her absence was initially expected to last at least three months.
While it’s unclear if this angle was done because she got injured for real or if she just wanted some time off for outside projects, PWInsider reports she was at the WWE Performance Center this week, with creative plans for her return expected soon.
She’s highly expected to be a part of a match at WrestleMania 41, which will also involve Bianca Belair & Naomi, who believe Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez attacked Jade.
Bianca & Naomi will defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles against Liv & Raquel on next week’s RAW.
