What looked like AJ Lee finally breaking her silence turned out to be nothing more than a hoax.
On October 22, 2025, a Facebook account claiming to be the former WWE Divas Champion posted an update addressing her recent absence from WWE television following her surprise return at WrestlePalooza. The post, which quickly spread online, claimed AJ was on a book tour and not dealing with any kind of injury.
“On a book tour. Not injured, but I appreciate the concern. Also, thanks Becky Lynch for keeping the title warm for me. Momma will be back, soon.”
The message sparked plenty of conversation across social media, with fans speculating about her WWE status and return timeline. However, Ringside News has confirmed that the Facebook account is fake and does not belong to AJ Lee.
There has been no official statement from AJ Lee or WWE regarding her current status. The WrestlePalooza appearance alongside CM Punk was her only in-ring activity this year, and she hasn’t been seen on television since.
With no verified word from AJ, it remains unclear when or if she will return to WWE programming.
