Brock Lesnar ‘Ruins’ CM Punk WWE Return?

Brock Lesnar recently made his return to WWE at SummerSlam pay-per-view, while CM Punk also made his pro-wrestling return as he made his AEW debut last week at AEW Rampage: The First Dance, which was labeled as the biggest moment in the company’s history and it is needless to explain. CM Punk already boosted the T-shirt sales records with his first batch of t-shirts. On top of that, even Jim Cornette considered his debut to be perfect.

Brock Lesnar return upsets FOX

Punk was in talks with AEW for almost two years as well, but the deal still closed in a hurry when the former WWE Champion told them he made a decision to return. Fans and pro wrestlers were delighted to see him in AEW. His debut was also delayed a bit because of the COVID-19 pandemic but it turned out perfect.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, FOX was upset with the fact that WWE didn’t even try to make a big offer to CM Punk in order to prevent him from going to AEW. In the end, it came down to the company deciding that getting Lesnar and Becky Lynch back on WWE television was more important.
