AJ Lee Addresses WWE Future After WrestleMania 42, ‘This Is Not Goodbye But I’ll See You Soon, I Hope’
AJ Lee has commented on her future in WWE after losing the Women’s Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 42.
Lee’s flawless record since returning last year has ended, with Becky Lynch defeating her to win back the IC Title.
Appearing on the official WWE WrestleMania post-show for an interview, Lee opened up about her future, saying:
“I never got to say goodbye last time and I felt bad about that, so this is not goodbye, but I’ll see you soon, I hope”
Elsewhere on the post-show, Paul Heyman appeared and discussed the WWE return of Bron Breakker during the Seth Rollins vs GUNTHER match.
Breakker speared Rollins and cost him the match before Heyman came out onto the stage to applaud and celebrate with him.
“What I can tell you about the events of tonight is that what happened to Seth Rollins was all predetermined by me.
“I set his ass up from the very beginning, and I’m glad I did it, and if I burn in Hell for my actions, there are not enough consequences for what I plan to do to Seth Rollins moving forward in the future!”
