Former WWE Superstar AJ Lee is on the road promoting her New York Times best selling book, Crazy Is My Superpower. During a recent Q&A session, AJ commented on declining WWE’s offer to appear on Total Divas and how it led to her infamous ‘Pipe Bomb’ promo lambasting the show.
When WWE was looking for a cast member to replace JoJo, AJ was a natural fit. She was wildly popular with the WWE Universe and her “crazy chick” character seemed ripe for WWE’s hit reality show. According to AJ, WWE wanted her on the show so badly that she was offered seven different storylines to choose from, should she agree to participate.
AJ says, “It was odd to represent a real version of myself that had storylines.”

Shortly after declining the spot on Total Divas, Vince McMahon approached her backstage at RAW and said, “So you don’t wanna do the show? Well, tell us why today!”
He gave her a live mic to vent about Total Divas and the Divas roster. AJ says she apologized to her co-workers in advance, since none of them knew what she was actually going to say. AJ pulled no punches, running down the cast members as a bunch of “cheap, interchangeable, expendable useless women” who turned to reality television because they weren’t talented enough to be actresses.
AJ says Vince was proud of her afterwards and thinks Vince loves those moments where he can trust the talent to take the ball and run with it.
