Topic 1: AJ Lee’s Return – Gamechanger or Nostalgia Pop?

Context: After nearly a decade away, AJ Lee makes her return. Fans call her a pioneer of the women’s division—but is this a true shakeup for WWE, or just another nostalgia boost?

Debate Question: Will AJ Lee’s return reshape the women’s division—or is WWE just cashing in on nostalgia?

Possible Stances:

• Pro: AJ paved the way, she still has fan love, and her presence adds depth to a stacked division.

• Con: The game has passed her by—Bianca, Rhea, Iyo, Bayley are the real anchors now.

⸻

Topic 2: Are Entitled Fans Turning Wrestling Into a Liability?

Context: Rhea Ripley was mobbed in Paris, assaulted by fans who crossed boundaries. Not the first incident of wrestlers calling out dangerous fan behavior.

Debate Question: Is this just passion gone too far—or a serious liability that could change fan access forever?

⸻

Topic 3: Is Peak CM Punk Better Than the Legends?

Context: Social media debates pit current stars’ “peaks” against wrestling’s all-time greats. At his peak—Pipebomb Punk, 434-day reign—does Punk belong in the same conversation as HBK, Rock, or Austin?

Debate Question: Does CM Punk at his peak measure up to wrestling’s legends—or is nostalgia keeping the old guard untouchable?
