AJ was great only in comparison to the current roster. Is she a Lita or Chyna? Hell no, but it was a break away from the "I'm pretty" gimmick that every Sunny clone in the locker room seems to have.

Eva Marie has shown she can run ropes properly, AJ still barely hit the ropes.

It hurts if you do it wrong, and her not hitting the ropes clearly show how bad she actually is.

Sidenote: I met eva marie at axxess, best day of my life. SHE IS WAY HOTTER IN PERSON.

Come to think of it, I cant think of any 'memorable' matches. Mostly bothes where it looked like someone was going to get seriously injured.

Not at all surprised she left, I'm more surprised she lasted this long. How long do you expect someone to keep working for a company suing their spouse? It's just part of the animosity between Punk and the WWE, so it shouldn't be surprising that AJ Lee would eventually remove herself once lawsuits started flying.

I'd expect a Diva's shelf life to be pretty limited anyhow. She had her run, much longer than it needed to be. Typically, the WWE picks a charismatic character, puts her to the forefront for a year, then they just fade well into the background. So it makes sense to leave while you're still getting promotion on TV as it can all go away very quickly.

She was right to milk it while she could and to leave once it longer seemed worth the work and time away from her husband.

WWE isn't suing Punk.

The doctor who Punk lambasted on that podcast is.
