CM Punk made his AEW debut last Friday on Rampage. Following that debut, many fans have speculated about the possibility of his wife and former WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee joining the promotion.
AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker appeared at a Planet Comicon event. During it, she was asked about this possibility.
“I would love…I was a big AJ Lee fan. One of the first moves I asked my trainer to teach me when I was training was her finisher, the Black Widow. So, that would be really cool. I think…again, it’s giving the fans what they want. I think for the fans to see both of them in a wrestling ring again in 2021, let alone not in WWE. That alone would be evolutionary. That would be such a moment. So, for that moment alone, I would love to see her in AEW, I would love to see her in the ring with me.”
Baker later added that she would like to see a mixed tag team match with herself and “somebody else,” which she was likely referencing Adam Cole, against Lee and Punk.
“Speaking of her and him, I know we said we don’t really do mixed tags, but I can think of a mixed tag that I would like to see involving her, Punk, me, and somebody else”
Lee hasn’t worked a match since March 2015 on an episode of WWE Raw as she retired from the business. You can watch the entire interview by clicking on the player below (quotes can be found at the 41:30 mark):
