Alright, so a while back, I was super curious about this wrestler CM Punk and his wife. I’d see them mentioned all the time, and I realized I knew absolutely nothing about his wife, AJ Lee. So, I decided to get to the bottom of it and find out who she really was.

First things first, I started with the basics. A simple search for “who is CM Punk’s wife?” gave me her name: AJ Lee. Her real name is April Jeanette Mendez. That’s one mystery solved! I learned that they tied the knot back on June 13, 2014. It was a small, private deal, just their close friends and family. I always appreciate a couple that keeps things intimate like that.
But then, I was like, “Okay, she’s a wrestler too?” I dove a little deeper and found out that’s exactly right. She was a big deal in the wrestling world herself! It seems like they met through their shared love for professional wrestling. How cool is that?
I found out that they started dating around 2013. It’s kind of awesome that they found love while working together in WWE. Imagine meeting your future spouse at work! I also learned that AJ Lee was born on March 19, 1987. Her parents are Robert Mendez and Janet, but she’s definitely made a name for herself outside of her family.
I spent a good chunk of time reading about her career and all her achievements. She’s not just CM Punk’s wife; she’s a force to be reckoned with in her own right. Her personal life got a lot of media attention, especially because of her relationship with CM Punk, whose real name is Phillip Jack Brooks.
I even tried to piece together a timeline of their relationship. From what I gathered, it all started in the WWE, blossomed into a relationship in 2013, and then bam! They got married in 2014. It looks like a classic case of a workplace romance turning into something real.

So, yeah, that’s what I found out about CM Punk’s wife, AJ Lee. She’s way more than just his partner; she’s a successful wrestler with her own story and accomplishments. It was a fun little research project, and now I feel like I actually know a bit more about this wrestling power couple.
Conclusion of My Findings:
- Name: AJ Lee (April Jeanette Mendez)
- Married to: CM Punk (Phillip Jack Brooks)
- Marriage Date: June 13, 2014
- Occupation: Professional Wrestler
- How They Met: Through WWE
It was cool to figure all this stuff out. Now, when I see them mentioned, I’ll actually have some context!
