WWE Superstar AJ Lee made her return to RAW earlier this week, costing Becky Lynch the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Maxxine Dupri. While it was an exciting moment, which should’ve led to a week of trying to figure out Lee’s next move, the segment was sadly overshadowed thanks to a strange YouTube upload. Ad AJ Lee has unfortunately found herself a subject of debate online. The WWE Superstar recently appeared at The Big Event NY on November 15th, meeting fans and signing autographs. One fan used the experience to create an AI video of himself kissing Lee, leading to justified outrage throughout the week. Thanks for the submission! After banning the perpetrator, The Big Event made a statement regarding shows going forward. The convention is putting its foot down in an attempt to make sure nothing like this happens again. Ad Trending “As most have you have seen The Big Event has been making headlines for the past 48 hours for the wrong reasons. This isn’t a discussion regarding the positive or negative uses of AI, but if you use AI or any other type of manipulation to misrepresent the experience you had at the show that paints our guests or our fans in a negative or compromising way, you will be banned from all future events, one strike, no appeal. We want everyone who comes to have a memorable experience, a REAL memorable experience, and not create a false narrative that ruins future opportunities and moments for our fans. The celebrities and talent that take time out of their schedule do it because they appreciate the fans that made this all possible, so please, respect the talent, not only during the show, but outside of it as well. Thank You. BigEvent Staff.” Ad AJ Lee asked for the removal of the controversial AI video Fan Chris Horror posted an AI video of himself and WWE Superstar AJ Lee using a photo he got at The Big Event NY on November 15th. The video shows the fan kissing Lee in a, frankly, strange and disturbing attempt to show appreciation for the former Divas Champion. Ad AJ Mendez @TheAJMendez @Chris_HorrorYT This is inappropriate and it is harassment. Please delete. Ad “This is inappropriate and it is harassment. Please delete,” stated AJ Lee” Despite AJ Lee asking for the video to be removed, it’s still up at the time of this writing. It doesn’t look like the fan will be taking any action, as he’s also set his profile picture to the photo he got of himself and Lee. × Feedback Why did you not like this content?

CM Punk makes a heartbreaking John Cena confession ahead of WWE retirement
CM Punk and John Cena have had some really great matches with each other over the years. The iconic rivalry between the two stars from the summer of 2011 is fondly remembered by fans. Ahead of Cena’s retirement match next month, Punk made a heartbreaking confession about being a part of his retirement tour. The Second City Saint faced off against the Last Real Champion earlier this year at the Night of Champions Premium Live Event. Fans loved to see the long time rivals go at it once again during Cena’s retirement run. Thanks for the submission! In a recent interview with WGN News, the World Heavyweight Champion shared his thoughts on Cena’s retirement. He made a confession stating that he was a small part of Cena’s tour. However, a lot of fans might find this heartbreaking since Punk was actually one of Cena’s biggest rivals. “A real treat to come back to WWE to be a witness to John gracefully bowing out and retiring. I’m a small part of his story, and I’m proud to be that small part. It’s been everything to me. I’m a fan of his, just like people are fans of me.; So being around him and being there to experience him just kind of gracefully, I feel like I’m skating with Gretzky during his last couple games.” Punk said. (4: 10 onwards) It’s heartbreaking to see CM Punk act so modestly even after being such a big part of the career of John Cena. CM Punk and John Cena will be in action at Survivor Series: WarGames Survivor Series: WarGames is just a few days away and the card is already stacked. The Men’s WarGames is set to take place between Team Punk and The Vision. On this week’s episode of RAW, Reigns returned to join Punk, the Usos and Cody Rhodes against Heyman’s group. However, Brock Lesnar made his return to ally with his former manager’s group including the Vision, Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul. It was also announced that John Cena will defend his Intercontinental Championship against Dominik Mysterio at the event. It will be interesting to see if Cena can retain his title in San Diego.

WWE Hall of Famer slams “stupid Mexican traditions” after Dominik Mysterio incident
A WWE Hall of Famer has called out Mexican wrestling traditions following an incident involving Dominik Mysterio.
Dirty Dom recently defended the AAA Mega Championship at Héroes Inmortales 2025 against Dragon Lee. In a hard-fought contest, Dominik successfully walked out with his title, but the match was marred by an unsavory incident.
After the match, a coin thrown by a fan struck Dominik in the head, leaving him busted open just above the eyebrow. While fans in Mexico have been known to throw coins into the ring as a show of respect, WWE Hall of Famer JBL was far from impressed.
Speaking on the *Something to Wrestle With* podcast, JBL criticized the fans for injuring Dominik. He said,
“Listen, I saw some of these comments about, ‘Hey, WWE needs to keep the tradition.’ What the hell is wrong with you people? They’re not throwing coins into the ring, they’re throwing coins at Dom, you dumbas**s, and you are dumb as**s for throwing it. You got him busted open that badly. That’s not throwing a coin in the ring for, ‘Hey, here’s something really cool for you,’ that’s throwing a coin at Dom.”
JBL went on to call out the fans’ actions, emphasizing that this wasn’t the old tradition of throwing coins in the ring to show admiration but rather an attempt to harm Dominik Mysterio.
“So don’t tell me about your stupid Mexican traditions and all this bullsh*t about how WWE is going to keep this tradition. No, do you throw these guys out of the arena? Because what they’re doing is they’re trying to make the baby the heel or babyface, whatever he is, both, I think, blink. That’s why they throw sh*t at you. They throw sh*t at you to make you flinch or whatever else they think is funny. That’s what they’re doing,” he added.

Following the incident, El Grande Americano came out to the ring to check on Dominik and helped him to his feet.
### Dominik Mysterio Addresses Mexican Fans
After the show, Lucha Libre AAA shared a backstage clip showing Dominik Mysterio boasting about his win and addressing the coin-throwing incident. He acknowledged that the coin toss is a Mexican tradition but made it clear that he doesn’t need their money.
He jokingly challenged the fans, saying if they want to throw something, they should try bills instead. Dominik then referred to himself as the “King of Wrestlers.”
### What’s Next for Dominik Mysterio?
Dominik Mysterio will be in action at *Saturday Night’s Main Event*, where he will defend his Intercontinental Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Penta and Rusev.
