The WWE Universe still holds AJ Lee in high regard. The two-time Diva of the Year has not wrestled in 3,669 days. Rumors of her return picked up when CM Punk came back, and they have increased during WrestleMania 41 season as another major name is expected to make a comeback. Wrestling legends Bill Apter and Teddy Long recently weighed in on the potential reignition of a feud.
The Geek Goddess had many notable WWE rivalries, but she and the former Paige had a unique friend-foe bond. Paige's historic RAW debut after WrestleMania XXX saw the then-21-year-old capture AJ's Divas Championship. At WrestleMania 31, Paige and AJ defeated The Bella Twins before teaming up with Naomi on RAW to defeat Natalya and the Bellas in what was Lee's final match.
Both veterans have been rumored to return to WWE. The Anti-Diva was arguably underutilized in All Elite Wrestling, but World Wrestling Entertainment will push her a certain way, according to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter.

"I think so, because it's different, and people haven't seen that in a while. It's brand new," Teddy Long said. [From 2:39 to 2:44]
