With AEW Full Gear almost upon us, social media is abuzz with wild predictions. One of them is CM Punk showing up at the end of the main event between MJF and Jon Moxley.
MJF will square off against AEW World Champion Jon Moxley in an attempt to win his first-ever title in All Elite Wrestling. He got this opportunity by winning the Casino Battle Royale ladder match at All Out.
MJF and Moxley have a lot of history against each other. They faced each other at All Out 2020 for the world title, where the Salt of the Earth came up short. Mox retained by using Paradigm Shift despite it being banned for that match. The story going into their match is intriguing, and many fans are expecting that Full Gear will be MJF’s crowning moment.
However, some fans believe six-time WWE World Champion CM Punk could show up after the main event to confront MJF if the latter wins the AEW Title.

CM Punk and MJF have a lot of history in AEW
Another thing to keep in mind is MJF’s history with CM Punk. The Second City Saint was originally going to face the former Dynamite Diamond Ring winner after MJF showed up at the end of All Out.
However, the Voice of the Voiceless went on his infamous rant in the media scrum after the show. The tirade overshadowed everything from the actual pay-per-view, especially the big return of The Salt of The Earth.
Moreover, MJF and CM Punk had a lengthy feud earlier this year that saw MJF become the first man in AEW to pin CM Punk. He achieved this feat in Chicago, no less. They fought in a Dog Collar Match at Revolution, where the former WWE Champion came out on top after a bit of help from Wardlow.
MJF vs. CM Punk is arguably the greatest feud in All Elite Wrestling history. While a CM Punk return seems unlikely if Tony Khan can pull it off, revisiting this rivalry would make for exceptionally entertaining television.
Do you think Punk will return to face MJF at Full Gear? Sound off in the comments below.
