Reason for AJ being written off + return date.

[Abdullah]

WWE Diva AJ Lee, who is out of action healing up from an injury, tweeted the following today and shot down pregnancy rumors that have been going around off and on for over a year now.

"Finally nursing a neck injury from the week before SummerSlam. Not preggers, guys. Way too attached to my abs." - @wweajlee

On her return...

AJ Lee is being advertised for a WWE Supershow the night before Royal Rumble in her home state of New Jersery, which will undoubtedly kick off a new round of rumors about when she'll be leaving be good.

I'm not sure what she could do, still, but good booking is all it takes.

So, we've got a few new sets of twins?

Did the old ones make it to the retirement home yet?

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

Something something z-packs.

I like how now the news site are also joking about the multiple pregnancy and retirement rumors, when they were the ones that started them to begin with.

It's their way of communicating remorse.

Being a wrestling news writer means never having to say 'I was wrong.'

I just find it depressing she's had a neck injury since August and didn't get time off till November.

When she comes back, they should do the "Bayley is her annoying sister" angle. It's the only way Bayley can get over.

They give her some mic time and show what she can do in the ring, she'll be over in no time. You don't have to insert AJ into everything (not in that way!) just because you're obsessed with her.

She's the top Diva. Bayley would have good interactions with her, including those involving a microphone. Sending Bayley into the ring cold, with no storyline to draw the fans in, is doomed to fail.

Well what the hey, it's only a neck injury those are nothing. Why not have her hang out 3+ months before getting to heal.

Punk has the incubator ready for her eggs. When they hatch, they can take to the wind and spread across the country.

Or she can get over by herself without needing to be attached to someone much like AJ was because let us not act like AJ association with the top guys didn't get her as over as she is now.

I'm pretty sure AJ's mothered half the country by now.

I agree, AJ got over by association. So why can't Bayley benefit from that too? That's how its supposed to work. Bigger stars help new ones get over. AJ would be beneficial to Bayley if they write it correctly.

I would prefer they didn't have them as siblings, but otherwise, I'd be largely fine with it.

I think an AJ/Bayley association would only work if AJ is a heel. She tries to turn Bayley into a mini-AJ, gets her to help her win matches, generally acts like a bully, then Bayley turns on her. Instant face.

Yep, that's basically it.

Simple and logical. WWE always overthink things, or underthink them.

[Mozenrath]

Paige, Emma, and Bayley would be a fun grouping, also. Could see Paige saying NXT girls have to stick together, and Emma and Bayley her unwitting accomplices to her heeling it up until they took a stand or she turned on them for some mistake or lashing out after a loss of her own.

I don't see why you couldn't do this with AJ as a face. Basically the same as Mickie/Trish, without the lesbianism.

Because it would make Bayley the heel when they split
