Welcome to the Busted Open After Dark podcast.

I'm your host Tommy Dreamer, and A.J. Lee returns to Monday Night Raw, and I'm going to talk about it right now.

This is the Busted Open podcast.

As everybody knows, on Friday, making her return to the WWU's A.J. Lee.

A.J. Lee's return to the WWE is as big as CM Punk's return to the WWE for many, many reasons,

and has nothing to do with them being husband and wife.

It's all about them being two prominent.

WW superstars, who, yes, became married, but her departure was as big as news as CM Punk.

She was beloved in the WWE.

I'm a big fan of her work. And she was a mega star. I mean, she has so many great

attributes. She has great acting chops by acting chops. Like when I remember when she was a heel,

when she was a baby face, when she's a baby face, she's adorable, when she was a heel when she was a baby face when she's a baby

face she's adorable when she's a heel she's despicable and she had a long ass run being on top

within the wwee and then you know she leaves her and cm punk get married there's all this turmoil with w v m punk and of course

a j you know being your wife is going to stick by her husband uh all that is water under the bridge

because now she's returned she's returned on. She returned on Friday to a massive pop.

Loved how they set it all up again. Um, and she, you know, besides doing physicality,

what do you wait for? You wait to hear from her. A great setup the way they did that. And,

man, there were so many cool things about it. Number one, the pop.

How do they wait for it?

And they literally just keep you in anticipation for nothing.

Nothing is happening.
