CM Punk, the WWE star, recently signed a significant deal with Paradigm, one of the top talent agencies globally. Punk announced the deal on Instagram, expressing his excitement about achieving a long-held desire. His wife, AJ Lee, former Divas Champion, commented on his post, praising his appearance in the cover picture and reaffirming that she is always right.
Previously, CM Punk returned to WWE at the Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event in 2022 but suffered an injury during the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble Match, leading to his absence from wrestling since then. Despite this setback, Punk remains popular among WWE fans, making regular non-wrestling appearances on the company’s programming.
AJ Lee, a prominent female wrestler known for her role in the women’s revolution in WWE, retired from wrestling in 2015 due to injury issues. Although CM Punk expressed his desire for AJ’s return to the ring, he believes the chances are minimal.
AJ Lee was a WWE Superstar for many years, winning the Divas Championship three times. After leaving WWE in 2015, AJ briefly returned to professional wrestling as an executive producer and color commentator for Women of Wrestling (WOW) in 2021. However, she left the promotion after her contract expired in 2022.
CM Punk signed a major deal with talent agency Paradigm, with AJ Lee reacting positively to the news. Punk’s desire for AJ’s wrestling comeback is unlikely, as AJ focuses on her career outside of the ring following her departure from WOW.
