He said:

“It’s good for wrestling, which I’m all about. I was outside the company from 2014 to 2017, working independents and Impact, and it’s healthy right now. If it makes a positive difference, it gets a thumbs up from me.”

Punk is likely to portray a babyface going forward but according to Booker T, he should’ve chosen a heel instead of a babyface like Darby Allin as his first opponent in AEW. The WWE legend believes the dynamic in the ring will be different if two babyfaces work against each other.

On the latest edition of the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T explained why he wouldn’t have chosen to face a babyface if he were Punk.

“I want to see it, because I know Darby Allin, he’s non-stop. As well as babyface. Babyface-babyface match? For me, I’d have picked a heel. When you’re working from a heel-babyface perspective, as far as I’m concerned, the heel doesn’t have to be as fast; (he) just has to keep up. As long as I’m able to keep up, I’ll be okay. But, when you’re working babyface-babyface, both of you guys have to be all out, all the time,” said Booker T.

“When you’re working matches like that, it’s going to test your cardio, especially when it gets to 10, 15, 20 minutes, gets close to 30 (minutes), it’s going to weigh on you, because you’ve got to move. The guy he chose wouldn’t be the guy I would’ve right off the bat,” he added.

Punk will make his in-ring return against Darby Allin at All Out pay-per-view.
