WWE Legend Criticizes AJ Lee Return

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash has given some critique towards the recent return of AJ Lee and how it played out.

AJ returned in the lead-up to Wrestlepalooza, where she and husband CM Punk defeated another married couple in Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.

Upon her return, AJ had her classic entrance theme and skipping entrance – which Nash criticized given the situation.

Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, he said:

“If you go back in time – the NWO takes off, Hogan drops the leg, and then the next time you see Hulk, he’s still in the yellow and red. Does it work as well as the Hollywood, or do you go with the complete change because now you’ve got some f**king intrigue.

“I’m only going by s**t that works. When she came down to the ring, that was the lowest rated Netflix Raw that they’d had since they’d been on Netflix.

“The reason she’s coming down is not to make a phoney s**t wrestling angle – the reason she’s come down is because another woman is putting her hands on her husband and he can’t do anything about it.

“If she would have just stormed down, and not even said a word, just went right to her and pummelled the s**t out of her. Then if she wants to come out the next week and f**king skip, she can do what she wants.

“The first time you see her though, it’s like, she just showed up because, ‘You know what man, I’m gonna go to the arena with you next week,’ ‘Nah babe…’ ‘No f**k that, I’m going.’ And then the s**t goes down and she inserts herself.

“So then you have her still kind of playing the ‘I’m semi crazy’ character, and you have Bayley kind of playing the semi crazy character also. So now we have two mentally unstable women on the same show. That’s good? There’s no mentally unstable men on the show.”
