— The celebration didn’t stop for AJ Lee once this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown went off the air.
This week’s show closed with Lee making her long-awaited WWE return, her first television appearance in over a decade. After Becky Lynch slapped CM Punk, Lee stormed the ring to defend her husband, delivering a slap of her own that sent Lynch retreating up the aisle alongside Seth Rollins.
As the broadcast ended, Lee and Punk shared an emotional embrace in the ring. Off-air, the celebration continued with Lee skipping around while holding Lynch’s WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship. She climbed the turnbuckle to pose with the title as Punk looked on proudly from ringside.

— Post Malone, who was in attendance for WWE Clash in Paris this past Sunday, got into a heated confrontation with Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch once the show went off the air.
In a recent interview with GQ, Malone hinted at the idea of stepping into the ring himself, even teasing a potential WrestleMania 42 showdown with Rollins. He said,
“I did (attend a WWE show). I think me and Seth Rollins got beef—you can put that on paper, too. You, me, Seth Rollins. WrestleMania 2026. Come on, baby. I’ve always wanted to do that. I figured if I had a different musculature and different career path, I would love to have been a WWE wrestler.”
