As reported earlier, one of the all-time great female performers in WWE history, AJ Lee is coming back to professional wrestling. After a gap of more than seven years, she will be back on TV as part of “WOW: Women of Wrestling” promotion’s reboot version. WOW World Champion The Beast and former champion Tessa Blanchard will lead the roster for the upcoming season.
Obviously, fans would have loved to witness AJ Lee back in action but she would rather be happy to be on the commentary on the programming. At the same time, she will serve as the Executive Producer for the upcoming season. That being said, a little bit of disappointment is there for the wrestling fans that they can’t witness the former WWE Divas Champion dancing in the ring.

PW Insider journalist Mike Johnson gave an update on why AJ Lee won’t be wrestling for WOW Women of Wrestling promotion. It was noted that she has not shown any interest in getting back in the ring. There is also interest from other companies to work with her, but in case that happens, it would take up a lot more time.
AJ Lee is having an extremely busy schedule
The source informed that AJ Lee’s participation in WOW Women of Wrestling will not add up much more to her already busy schedule,
“WOW approached her and made her an offer to work as an Executive on the series. She hasn’t shown any interest in wrestling and has a lot of projects in Hollywood she’s working on. Going to WWE or AEW would surely take up a massive amount of her time.
WOW won’t be as busy, she’ll get an executive credit and she can be free to get her other film and writing projects going. […] In her eyes, isn’t an option for her due to health issues.”
AJ Lee has been establishing her name as an author since hanging up her boots. She is already a renowned writer who is penning comic books. With her husband returning to the wrestling ring, there’s obviously a lot going on, in her life but she’s not getting back to action, as of now.
But wrestling fans obviously don’t want to give up hopes as they believe that she will eventually change her mind. Previously, CM Punk revealed that a neck injury is a prime reason why AJ Lee didn’t want to get physical following her retirement from the WWE. We’ll see whether she could overcome the hindrance at some point in her life.
