With WWE Wrestlepalooza set to host the in-ring return of AJ Lee teaming with CM Punk against Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch, more allies may be revealed.
From noted superfans of AJ Lee to those on the roster that could boast mutual enemies – there are plenty of reasons why some top WWE stars may want to join forces with CM Punk and AJ Lee.
Here are eight WWE stars who could join CM Punk & AJ Lee against Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch and The Vision faction.
8. Roxanne Perez
It is no secret that Roxanne Perez is a big fan of AJ Lee.
And since Lee’s return and the duo posting together on social media, it seems the feeling is mutual!
While Perez may be a member of the heel stable Judgment Day now, she could be very easily humbled or given an inspirational on-screen talk by AJ Lee to reboot her character into a babyface.
Aligning with CM Punk and AJ Lee could lead to a lot of interesting stories for Perez including potential conflict with other stablemates.

7. Rhea Ripley
A massive addition to the crew could be fan favorite Rhea Ripley.
While the former Women’s World Champion continues to engage in some non-title feuds on WWE Raw, since WrestleMania 41 she has been devoid of her own major rivalry.
While babyface friend Rhea has been enjoyable, it could be fun to see her recapture some of her brutality by aligning with the unabashedly herself AJ Lee.
Bringing back more of a threatening and frightening presence to her enemies, Ripley could definitely target Becky Lynch for the Intercontinental Championship.

6. John Cena
With only a limited number of dates left for John Cena, he wouldn’t need to fully join CM Punk and AJ Lee’s side in order to make a big impact.
While there have been rumors and speculation, Cena’s last opponent in WWE remains unknown – meaning he could always drop by this emerging feud to lend a hand.
Fans continue to wonder if Cena could be poised to face the likes of GUNTHER or Bron Breakker in his final match – either of which could make an alliance with CM Punk make sense.
Potentially linking up at Survivor Series WarGames, it could be an all-star mixed tag match for the first time in the event’s history.

5. Bayley
Another notable pal of both CM Punk and AJ Lee in real life is Bayley.
With Bayley’s new attitude being decidedly a little odd – perhaps there is a bigger reason.
Struggling between two iterations of her past character, there could definitely be a pep-talk from AJ Lee to Bayley to help her unleash her true self.
Since Bayley’s return featured her wearing AJ Lee’s new merch while running out to save babyface Lyra Valkyria – they may already be aligned!

4. Nathan Frazer
While he has primarily been known for his tag team skills thus far on the main roster, Nathan Frazer has untapped singles potential.
Potentially breaking away from Axiom and their Fraxiom tag team, Frazer could link up with CM Punk in what might be considered a betrayal of Seth Rollins.
Being trained at Rollins’ Black & Brave Wrestling Academy, Frazer has cited Rollins as a mentor in the past – a fact that could be incredible to explore if Frazer were to instead be recruited by Punk.
Since Seth Rollins stole CM Punk’s mentor in Paul Heyman, turn about is fair play for Punk to recruit Frazer which creates an opportunity for a dynamic feud down the road between Frazer & Rollins.

3. Liv Morgan
One star that would have common enemies with Punk & AJ is Liv Morgan.
While Liv Morgan is out of action due to injury at the minute, there are rumblings that when she does return, it could be as a babyface.
Potentially linking up with CM Punk and AJ Lee, Morgan can continue feuding with Becky Lynch, only this time in a whole new way.
With simmering tensions sure to boil over on her return with Roxanne Perez, the dynamic between three generations of women could be intriguing and more nuanced than has been seen on WWE TV.

2. Lyra Valkyria
Lyra Valkyria could be one member of the roster with some unsettled business with Becky Lynch.
Despite the pair having a series of matches which saw Becky continue to best Valkyria to retain the Intercontinental Championship, there could still be some interesting stories to be told if Lyra were to find a new mentor.
Valkyria could definitely be a valuable addition to the babyface stable as she grows into a fan favorite with her catchy entrance.
Bringing her together on-screen with AJ Lee could be an incredible way to incense ‘The Man’ Becky Lynch, but also to add some much needed authenticity to Valkyria’s character.

1. Damian Priest
While there is plenty of muscle in Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed in The Vision, perhaps CM Punk could use his own big backup.
Enter Damian Priest, who could be the perfect counterbalance for the Brons, able to use his size and strength to fend off the heels.
Bringing a new purpose to Priest, the pair could also always end up feuding with mutual enemy Drew McIntyre down the road as well.
Potentially leading to some fascinating conflict in the end over Punk & Priest’s shared goal of recapturing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship – this pairing could be memorable in more ways than one.
