AJ Lee reacts to finding out about a match with potential WrestleMania implications on WWE RAW.
Last week, WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion AJ Lee had some fighting words. During her appearance on RAW, Lee put the entire women’s division on notice. She said she wasn’t waiting to defend her title at WrestleMania 42 and that she was issuing an open challenge.
“If you think that you are championship material… then come at me,” she declared, promising that the next time she steps into the ring, the title will be on the line.
The next shot showed Lyra Valkyria convincing Bayley to step up to AJ Lee’s open challenge. Both women also bumped into IYO SKY, who was coming out of RAW General Manager Adam Pearce’s office after seemingly hearing about the open challenge.
