CM Punk: Former WWE Star jokes on AEW Rumors and wrestling return speculations on Twitter yesterday afternoon.
There have been rumors that former WWE Champion and MMA Star CM Punk has been pursued by both the WWE and AEW this year. Dave Meltzer had earlier reported on a late April edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that Punk was the first wrestler Tony Khan wanted to sign; even before Chris Jericho or The Young Bucks themselves. WWE Hall of famer X-Pac even guaranteed that CM Punk would wrestle for AEW later this year.
Speculations are rife that the upcoming AEW Pay-per-View. Double or nothing, will feature Punk. This is despite Punk doing announcer work for the Cage Fury Fighting Championships MMA event at Coachella, CA on the same day.
CM Punk took to twitter to reference the speculations regarding his wrestling return and AEW debut.
OMG AEW CONFIRMED

He also made a hilarious comment on AEW’s Luchasaurus. The fan joked about Punk being behind the Luchasaurus mask; referencing the video of a masked man appearing at an Indie event and performing the GTS. The masked man was later confirmed as Punk.
That a real person?

Could be you under that hood for all I know. Wouldn’t be the first time.
