10 Superstar Returns That Could Save WWE Payback

6. AJ Lee

Very much one of the roster€™s younger members, AJ has been on a break since the night after Wrestlemania. There, her 295-day Diva€™s title reign ended at the hands of newcomer Paige. Prior to that, she had beaten practically every other diva again and again, showing her clear superiority and domination. Maybe that€™s why the WWE granted her some time off €“ the Diva€™s division was even staler than normal and it enabled AJ to recharge her batteries. It€™s since emerged that she is to marry CM Punk very soon, despite only being together a matter of months. Considering Punk walked out on the WWE and seems to be persona non-grata, some of that heat may have attached itself to AJ. They mightn€™t be in any hurry to end her break. However, for the sake of the Diva€™s division, AJ needs to return at Payback and feud with Paige over the summer. Lee is arguably the only Diva with anywhere near an on-screen personality.
