WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long admires AJ Lee (April Mendez) and expresses a desire to see her return to WWE.

Lee has been out of action since 2015 due to a neck injury, and Long reflected on his memories with Lee during a recent appearance on the “WrestleBinge” podcast.

On his experiences with Lee: “I’ve met her when I was there before she ever married CM Punk, so I had the opportunity to work with her. What a nice person. Real nice lady. And great attitude and everything. Yeah, I think it’s time for her to come back.”

On Lee’s potential value to WWE: “She didn’t leave on bad terms, and they didn’t bury her before she left. I think right now she’d be a big asset to them.”

As we previously reported here on eWn, WWE is willing to welcome Lee back and leaves the decision up to the former Divas Champion.
