AJ Lee shares thoughts on upcoming WWE Elimination Chamber match
With less than a week left for WWE Elimination Chamber, AJ Lee has opened up and addressed her upcoming title match.
On February 28, AJ Lee will face Becky Lynch for the women’s Intercontinental title at the PLE. However, before that, Lee and her husband, CM Punk, appeared on ESPN’s Unsportsmanlike, where she opened up and shared her honest thoughts on the match.
Calling Lynch the “best” of her generation, Lee claimed, “I love me some Becky [Lynch], I feel like it is admiration, we’re very, very similar. I know I’m the best of my generation, I know she’s the best of hers, so it’s a morbid fascination of can I beat the best? Can I show that I can still go? So I love her, and I respect her, and I want to beat her pretty little face in.”
However, Punk held a completely different opinion of Lynch and her husband, Seth Rollins. “I definitely hate Becky more than AJ does, and I can do without Seth. Every day I’ve gotta talk about this guy because people ask,” Punk said.
While Lee chases her Intercontinental title, Punk is scheduled to defend his World Heavyweight championship against Finn Balor at Elimination Chamber in his hometown of Chicago.
