CM Punk Drops WWE Return Bombshell

CM Punk is a member of All Elite Wrestling! While AEW Rampage: The First Dance and CM Punk’s arrival to AEW will surely be talked about for some time to come, he did also make more than one brief mention toward his former employer after the show went off the air. This CM Punk fan ‘broke down crying’ in this AEW photo.

 


 

During the post-show media call for AEW Rampage, CM Punk along with AEW Executive Tony Khan answered questions from several reporters in the sports and professional wrestling media.

One such highlight was how CM Punk sarcastically blamed the wife of former AEW Champion Jon Moxley and former WWE commentator Renee Paquette for his return as he talked about the short-lived WWE Backstage program and how it was eye opening for him. Credit to the official Twitter account of WrestleZone for the following.

“Punk jokingly blames @ReneePaquette for his return, noting she opened the door to WWE Backstage and it opened his eyes. He says no one had to prove anything to him. Tony says he really wanted Punk to wrestle, and the pandemic gave them time to talk.”

Will this top star be following CM Punk to AEW? In another WWE mention, Punk was asked how his AEW debut compared to another rocious moment in Punk’s Wrestling history – WWE Money in the Bank 2011. The former WWE Champion would answer by saying: that Rampage was a more ‘organic’ experience.

“This felt more organic. Everything before this felt like a fight that squeezed the life out of him, but this was a joyful moment. It didn’t need too much input, it’s pro wrestling and needed to be real”
