Following her unforgettable return during Friday night's episode of SmackDown, AJ Lee made her way to the ring on RAW to cut her first promo in the company for over a decade. 

The Milwaukee crowd immediately started voicing their support for the former Divas Champion, and she proceeded to recap the past 10 years of her life away from WWE. Explaining that she went on a mental health journey to get better, she even had fans in the building chanting for "Therapy" after detailing the benefits of it. 

Admitting that she and Becky Lynch could have been friends, Lee said The Man crossed a line by putting her hands on her husband, prompting the Women's Intercontinental Champion to make her way out to the ring. 

Seth Rollins soon joined her and attempted to retrieve his wife's title from Lee. That brought CM Punk out and forced the World Heavyweight Champion to accept Lee's challenge for a Mixed Tag Team match at Wrestlepalooza later this month.

With that, Lynch's title was returned, and the stage is set for Lee's first match in a decade. 

The return promo was excellent, proving that Lee hasn't lost a step since she retired from the company in April 2015. Her trademark wit and personality really shone through, and the response online to her mental health comments has been overwhelmingly positive.
