7 WWE Superstars who have fired shots at AEW

#3. WWE megastar Roman Reigns has taken shots at CM Punk and the AEW roster

Many top superstars from WWE have made the jump to AEW in recent years. CM Punk is one of the biggest names to return from retirement to join AEW after enjoying a successful career in WWE.

The wrestling industry believed that Punk’s return is massive. However, WWE megastar Roman Reigns stated that CM Punk's return with AEW "doesn't do anything" for him.

While talking to Complex, the Universal Champion took a shot at Punk and AEW. He stated that The Best in the World was older and wouldn't elevate him at all if Punk was to come to WWE instead of AEW.

"If our audience wanted to see it [CM Punk returning to WWE] and they were clamoring for it, couldn’t shut up about it, and all the stars aligned, as a businessman and as a performer who was trying to seek out the very best for the audience and try to captivate, I wouldn’t say no. But I mean, on a personal level, it doesn’t do anything for me. That’s not going to elevate me at all. He’s older now. I haven’t really seen a full match. I’ve seen a clip or two. And to me, a step or two has been lost," said Reigns.

The Tribal Chief also took a shot at Punk’s MMA record and physique.

"Then also he got whooped in the UFC. I don’t think anybody really believes someone 200 pounds soaking wet with no explosive bone in their body could ever really do anything to me.”

Roman has been on another level ever since his heel turn. CM Punk may not have been able to match Reigns’ level if he had returned to WWE instead of AEW.
