Raquel Rodriguez recently opened up about the prospect of facing AJ Lee in the near future. Lee captured her first singles championship in over 10 years at last weekend’s Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event. She defeated Becky Lynch via submission to win the Women’s Intercontinental Championship.

On this week’s RAW, Lee challenged the female locker room to come after her title. Later, Liv Morgan urged Raquel Rodriguez to go after the IC Championship. Raquel will now feature in a six-woman Gauntlet match next Monday for a shot at Lee’s title.

In the latest episode of RAW Recap, Raquel Rodriguez commented on the prospect of facing AJ Lee. She said that it would mean the world to her. The Judgment Day member also heaped praise on Lee’s performance against Becky at Elimination Chamber, claiming that the newly crowned champion hasn’t lost a step. However, she then reminded the hosts of her dominance over Trish Stratus in the past and said that she’d be happy to “ragdoll” AJ and send her home with CM Punk.

Raquel Rodriguez on Potentially Facing AJ Lee in the Near Future

“It would mean the world to get to face AJ Lee. She is obviously amazing in her own right. We’ve all looked up to her. We are all so excited to have her back in this locker room. She showed us that she has not lost a step at all at Elimination Chamber. The battle that she put on with Becky Lynch was phenomenal, but it does make me hungrier, and it does make me excited because she won’t be the first legend I step into the ring with. Remember when I had Trish Stratus in my arms and I ragdolled her until she couldn’t even really move anymore, and then I just threw her right on the mat.

“And no offense to AJ Lee, but what is she? About the same size as Trish Stratus? I’ll be happy to ragdoll her and send her home with CM Punk as soon as Dominik Mysterio is done with him again or maybe even if JD wants to take a whack at it.”
