Well who would have thought it Wrestlepalooza and WWE coming together in 2025, anything and everything really can happen and what better way to showcase that very sentiment than with the return of AJ Lee and the crowning of a New Women’s World Champion.
After over a decade away from the squared circle, AJ Lee looks set to lace up her Chuck Taylors as she teams with Husband CM Punk to take on the Vision’s Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins. Will AJ Lee’s return be a fairy-tale or will the Villains write a nightmare for Lee and Punk.
Elsewhere after the shock announcement that Naomi was stepping away due to pregnancy, the Women’s World Championship looks to write a new chapter with either IYO SKY or Stephanie Vaquer as two of WWE’s very best square off for Championship gold. With the Kabuki Warriors seemingly waiting in the wings, will Vaquer have more than IYO to deal with? or will it be IYO who has to watch over her shoulder?
Will it all be a Palooza or will WWE put on a show not to be missed? With so many questions and so many possibilities it’s time to weigh in with our WWE Wrestlepalooza 2025 PPV Predictions:
Elle: It’s a shame that the build up between two of WWE’s most impressive superstars has been disappointing to say the least after treading new and exciting waters with Naomi as Champion. On paper and likely when it comes to the match this should be one to remember as IYO and Vaquer look to shake up the landscape and set the standard going forward. After weeks of tension between IYO and Asuka, I imagine tonight will see Asuka attempt to ‘aid’ IYO once more before turning on her former friend and forcing Kairi to tag along too. Whoever wins tonight will be a worthy Champion and I can’t wait to see the fallout and future Championship defences. Prediction: Stephanie Vaquer.
Adam (TheInsanityInc): The build-up to this match, which should be important to decide a new champ after the title has been vacant, has been awful. Cancelled contract signings and barely any interaction while all the attention has gone onto the Asuka-Sky storyline. No doubt two of the very best around will be able to deliver on a grand stage and make up for the mess of the lead-up. As far as a winner goes, I think that Asuka will play a part in trying to get Sky an underhanded win and that will end up backfiring big time to help gift Vaquer the win. Whether it’s intentional or not, remains to be seen. Prediction: Stephanie Vaquer
Elle: I can’t believe it’s finally here, AJ Lee’s official in-ring return after over a decade away! My inner child has going wild these last few weeks and I can’t get enough of both AJ Lee and Becky Lynch who have both been delivering week in week out. I imagine that this is just the first in a run of matches between AJ and Becky, with the pair eventually entering an intercontinental Championship match or even a second tag team match with a winner takes all stipulation. Whilst I would love to see AJ Lee win her long anticipated return match, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the heels get a sneaky/dirty win with Punk and AJ not backing down and requesting a follow up. Regardless of what happens I’m just so damn excited to see AJ back and can’t wait to see what a 2025 run looks for the former psycho. Prediction: Becky Lynch & Seth Rollins
Adam: A return that I never thought was going to happen as AJ Lee steps into a WWE ring for the first time in over ten years. The big question is can she still go like we’ve seen Trish Stratus deliver again and again, or will it end up being a dissapointment as we’ve witnessed from Nikki Bella’s lacking outings? I’m hoping for the best from the women in this one. With the ongoing story between their husbands, I can see Lee and Punk getting the win here to set up future title matches between the men and women down the line. Prediction: AJ Lee & CM Punk
