AJ Lee, also known as AJ Mendez, recently commented on the possibility of working together with her husband, WWE star CM Punk, in a new project. This discussion follows Punk’s recent remarks acknowledging that while they rarely collaborate professionally, the idea remains open for the future.
Insights on Their Professional Dynamic
Fans of WWE fondly recall the partnership between AJ Lee and CM Punk during their time in the ring, but outside WWE, the two have maintained distinct career paths. CM Punk, in a conversation with TV Insider, highlighted their unique approach to balancing work and personal life.
“There are really two things me and my wife don’t do together. One is to work out and the other is to work together. It’s really the perfect relationship,”
Punk said.
She is my partner through and through. She has her things, and I have mine. When the right thing comes along, I guarantee we will work together.

AJ Lee’s Perspective on Collaborating Again
At her panel during San Diego Comic Con, AJ Lee shared her thoughts about teaming up with Punk on a future endeavor. She acknowledged their long marriage and how it has influenced their working relationship.
“We’ve been married for 12 years, and the key is we don’t work together! (Laughs)”
AJ said.
She added that while collaboration has not been their norm, she would be open to it if the opportunity arose, praising Punk’s versatility.
“But It’d be really cool. Never say never, that’s what I say to all of the things when people ask where I’m going to work, but yeah, he’s a really good writer, a really good artist and he’s killing it right now, acting and wrestling.”
The Future of Their Collaboration and Wrestling Careers
Since AJ Lee retired from wrestling in 2015, wrestling fans have speculated about a possible return, especially following CM Punk’s WWE comeback in late 2023. The couple’s unique dynamic and individual career successes keep fans hopeful about future joint projects.
AJ’s recent remarks shed light on what aspects of wrestling she misses, indicating a continued connection to the sport despite stepping away. Their potential reunion in the ring or in other creative fields could be a compelling development in the wrestling world.
This possible CM Punk and AJ Lee collaboration highlights a blend of personal commitment and professional respect that could resonate with WWE’s audience, making their partnership an exciting topic for fans and insiders alike.
