AJ Mendez, aka the former AJ Lee during her WWE run, was walking the picket line today as part of the WGA Strike, holding a sign that read "I became a writer to avoid math & people, but here I am - STRIKE" -
Mendez and her writing partner Aimee Garcia (perhaps best known for playing Ella on Lucifer) had their first film Blade of 47 Ronin, released in October 2022. It was filmed in Budapest, Hungary for Universal 1440 Entertainment towards the end of 2021. The sequel to the 2013 Keanu Reeves film 47 Ronin, set several hundred years later. The plan was to turn this into a continuing film franchise and we are told that Mendez and Garcia have been working on additional material to continue the story.
Mendez, who retired from WWE in 2015, released an incredible memoir Crazy Is My Superpower in 2017 and is now an executive producer and color commentator on WOW - Women of Wrestling.
