What Happened With AJ Lee After WWE SmackDown Went Off The Air

WWE

WWE has shared some off-air footage of AJ Lee following the conclusion to tonight’s September 5 edition of SmackDown.

Lee made her WWE comeback tonight, attacking Becky Lynch on behalf of CM Punk and seemingly setting up a mixed tag team match for Wrestlepalooza with Punk and AJ facing Lynch and Seth Rollins.

WWE has taken to social media to share a new video of footage that was captured after SmackDown had finished.

The footage shows AJ taking a particular interest in Becky Lynch’s Women’s Intercontinental Championship, which Lynch had left in the ring when she and Rollins fled the scene.

You can see what happened in the videos below, with Punk watching on as his wife made her first WWE appearance in over 10 years.

It was Lynch who cost CM Punk the World Heavyweight Championship at Clash In Paris last weekend, helping Rollins retain the title.

We’ll keep you posted as updates emerge on AJ’s future with WWE.
