AJ Lee has made her shocking return to WWE for the first time in over a decade. On the September 5 episode of "Friday Night SmackDown" in Chicago, Illinois, the former Divas Champion appeared in the main event segment to confront Becky Lynch.

This sets the stage for a match at the upcoming WrestlePalooza Premium Live Event. The return, which took place in her husband CM Punk's hometown, was met with a thunderous ovation from the live crowd.
