They're trying to set up doubt and confusion about what she'll do as Special Guest Ref.
I mean on the grand scheme of things. Is the entire payout of this storyline "AJ is a special guest ref with a random element to add to the match?"
Like what are they building to? It's like the various Johnny Ace storylines where it seemed to be about building him up more than about the other guys. The net result of this seems to make AJ relevant, but that's not a great thing to use your main event scene on for two months unless she's going to take a major role as a main event manager soon, which would actually be pretty cool to be fair. But I have my doubts that's the point!
