Just for a little bit. Even if its for – flashback to CM Punk [cashed in at Extreme Rules], I was like champion for I don’t know, maybe a minute and then he cashed in his money in the bank so just one more time I would like to do that and it will make it all worthwile.”

Here, the former WWE champion discussed how Tony Khan is more ‘open minded’ in comparison to WWE.
“It’s really cool. Matt is in AEW and before the pandemic hit, their crowds were incredible and on fire. It’s so exciting watching, they are very different than WWE. I don’t know how to explain it, but they are more open minded, WWE is kind of set in their ways. This has changed many times over the years, especially since the Attitude era.”
