The Second City Saint had quite a rocky run in AEW, although a few of his storylines stood out as exceptional. It is no secret that he was not on the best of terms with the Stamford-based promotion following his departure, and apparently, the sentiment was still present when he was on Tony Khan's roster.
According to a recent report from Fightful Select, an unnamed AEW star stated that Punk was still quite verbal about his disdain for Triple H and Vince McMahon. However, the events of All Out 2022 including the backstage brawl changed his perception significantly. The report further claimed that another star believed Punk was in a much less forgiving career situation now.

IMPACT stars have also expressed their interest in working with him. As of now, it remains to be seen if rumors of Punk making his way to WWE turn out to be true.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
