Why AJ Lee isn't on Total Divas, Injured WWE superstar close to returning

WWE Diva AJ Lee

It was reported this past week that WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee isn’t being added to the Total Divas cast because of her marriage to CM Punk. While that is an obvious issue when it comes to filming her personal life, a source noted that AJ actually turned down a spot on the show when the first season was being planned.

AJ is known for being private and somewhat distant backstage and the idea of cameras following her around all the time didn’t fit who she is.

Bad News Barrett is said to be progressing very well and is expected back in the ring from a shoulder injury soon. The same was said about Ryback. Darren Young should also be back soon.
