Mercedes Mone responds after being asked to return to WWE to face AJ Lee

AEW star Mercedes Mone recently asked a huge question after AJ Lee's blockbuster WWE return. The 38-year-old star came back to the sports entertainment juggernaut after over a decade on last Friday's SmackDown. She took social media by storm, and fans have been discussing the potential dream matches she could have now that she's signed a full-time WWE contract.

The CEO was one of the names suggested by the fans. She has been on a great run in AEW. She also holds nine championships across the Jacksonville-based promotion and other independent promotions. There is currently a running joke on social media. If any wrestler posts a picture with a title, the TBS Champion teases going after the gold.

A fan on X asked Mercedes Mone to face Lee.

Veteran talks about how AJ Lee will be perceived in WWE

The former Divas Champion has been the talk of the town right now. However, she might not stay a hot topic for long if WWE doesn't book her carefully.

While speaking on BroDown, veteran Vince Russo claimed that if the 38-year-old star stays in WWE for a long time, she might just become another name in the locker room, similar to Nikki Bella.

"I don't know what you don't understand. He (Triple H) is the king of pops. It's another pop. I mean, seriously, that's why AJ Lee is here. It's another pop. I don't think it's gonna be long-term. I mean, I don't. If it is long-term, look at what happened to Nikki Bella. Nothing, zero. The same, exact thing will happen with AJ Lee if she remains on the roster," he said.

It will be interesting to see how long WWE manages to book her in the coming months.
