With AEW Rampage mere days away, everyone will be hoping to see CM Punk step foot inside a squared circle for the first time since leaving WWE in 2014. The moment will surely blow the roof of the United Center if the given rumors materialize.
Tony Khan gave a subtle hint regarding CM Punk's imminent AEW debut
The buzz around CM Punk has peaked to such an extent that it has become impossible for AEW Chief Tony Khan to ignore everywhere. Speaking to Sports Illustrated, Tony Khan stated that fans already know what to expect in Chicago:
"Next week’s Rampage is ‘The First Dance’, and I think everyone knows what to expect—and everyone is very excited. We built a foundation here for what you’re going to see next week. This was a huge premiere, and there is tons of anticipation for next week in Chicago." Khan revealed
The company has already given multiple hints. Darby Allin has issued an open challenge to anyone in Chicago while specifically mentioning that he could even be the best in the world.
