Why not save AJ Lee return for the Royal Rumble?
I promise I'm not trying to demean or minimize you, but I'm honestly baffled by this question. The Royal Rumble is almost five months away. I think people wanting everything saved for Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, All In, Bound For Glory etc -- why? Do you not want important things and moments happening on the weekly television? I thought that the rollout of AJ Lee's return was done really well.
Was Isla Dawn’s recent AEW appearance just a one shot? Do they still have interest in signing her?
I've not heard that she's being signed or that she's imminently set to do more. I'd imagine they will book her when she's around in the same territories. She made a good impression from what I was told. But even when there were reports that AEW had interest I was told that was more for single bookings.
Is WWE going to make AAA Library available on streaming?
The approaches that WWE is taking to AAA are all being discussed and hashed out. They plan to make AAA more global, as they feel there's a good appetite for lucha libre internationally. They're going to roll out some podcasts, and I'm sure will make more of the content accessible. When it comes to libraries, I think it's much more likely they emerge on Youtube to help cultivate new fans.

Imagine holding off the AJ return for the 2026 Rumble *in Saudi* lol

That last one has me wishing that if Tony ends up putting the ROH library on HBO Max sometime that he also works out a deal with CMLL to put their archives on there as well.
