The wrestling world recently reacted to the idea of CM Punk dethroning Roman Reigns if he joins WWE following his potential AEW departure.
The Straight Edge Superstar's stint in All Elite Wrestling is allegedly in jeopardy following recent reports about the company looking to buy out his contract. It was stated that the non-compete period has been a "hold-up" between the two parties, leading to speculation about AEW being worried that Punk might rejoin WWE.
Meanwhile, Roman Reigns has been on a tear in the sports entertainment juggernaut ever since becoming The Tribal Chief. He has been Universal Champion for well over two years now and added the WWE title to his collection by defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38.
One Twitter user recently shared a photo of CM Punk with both of Reigns' world championships on his shoulders. Wrestling fans erupted with anger at the post and below are some of the reactions:

Jim Cornette believes WWE should bring back former AEW World Champion CM Punk
While speaking on the latest edition of the Jim Cornette Experience, the wrestling veteran said it is the "perfect time" for Triple H to bury the hatchet with The Straight Edge Superstar.
"Now would be the perfect time for Triple H to show the world that he will put business in front of personal feelings. Because again one of the greatest lines in the history of wrestling, it was never uttered on television was what [CM] Punk said to Triple H in the locker room: ‘I don’t need to work with you, you need to work with me,’” said Cornette.
With CM Punk allegedly on his way out of AEW following his recent controversies, it will be interesting to see if Triple H does express some interest in bringing him back to WWE.
