Their book ''Incomparable'' detailed that their father was an abusive addict who drove Nikki to run away from home as a teenager, and the episode touched on some of it, making it in very poor taste on AJ's part.

However, Nikki has praised AJ repeatedly over the years, wishing she could have been part of the ''Evolution'' PPV and saying that a dream match would be teaming with her, Brie and {{Wrestling/Paige}} against the Four Horsewomen.

Kaitlyn didn't do anything remotely as important for a while, but she then entered a feud over the Divas Championship alongside [[Wrestling/{{LayCool}} Layla]] and [[Wrestling/EveTorres Eve]], which ended in Kaitlyn winning the Divas title at [[MilestoneCelebration RAW's 20th Year Anniversary on]] January 14, 2013. The girls would end up feuding over the championship and various other personal issues, with AJ taking the title from Kaitlyn at the ''Payback'' pay-per-view and only continuing to ruin her life since then. Her reign has since become the longest in history. Kaitlyn left the company in January of 2014.

She said that she didn't disapprove of the show, didn't look down on the women who participated in it, and the only thing remotely resembling an objection to it was that it wasn't something she'd like to do (and that the promo was based on her actually turning down an offer to join the show).

*** ''WebVideo/VideoGameChampionshipWrestling: Female Division'' [[ShoutOut referenced the Mortal Kosplay]] by having ''WWE '13''!AJ Lee fight against Kitana in one of their "VGCW vs. WWE" matches in which AJ won after a restart due to the initial Hell in a Cell match glitching out. Then later on, Kitana ''cosplayed as AJ in their HalloweenEpisode''. Even better, after said episode, she kept AJ's influence as part of her gimmick!

* FanNickname: AJ's promo on the ''Series/TotalDivas'' cast was nicknamed the 'Pipe Bombshell' after CM Punk's 'Pipe Bomb' promo in 2011.
* {{Jossed}}: Rumors circulated about real life heat between AJ and the Bellas, citing AJ's famous WorkedShoot promo as the reason. Nikki later clarified that she had disliked Brie's feud with AJ - because Brie got little to no mic time, and didn't look good from a booking perspective. As noted below, other sources have suggested that the woman who was legitimately offended by AJ's promo was actually Natalya.

** After a tryout match against {{Wrestling/Layla}}, AJ was going to be called up to TV in 2010. A vignette even appeared on the Smackdown tapings but got cut from the broadcast. The planned program would have been her in a love triangle with Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero - something that was given to Kaitlyn for NXT Season 3.

The planned program would have been her in a love triangle with Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero - something that was given to Kaitlyn for NXT Season 3. The vignette was initially cut because Alberto Del Rio was getting them as well and they didn't want two call-ups being hyped at the same time. By the time he debuted, plans had changed for AJ to debut on the NXT season instead.
** NXT Season 3 was initially planned to have a mixture of male and female rookies before being re-tooled into an all-female season. It's likely that AJ would have appeared on this version too, given that she had the most experience of the other rookies. Naomi likely would have been included too, and the remaining female spots by {{Wrestling/Aksana}} or Wrestling/KarleePerez.
