CM Punk made his grand return to the wrestling world on Saturday night when he returned for the debut episode of AEW Collision. Punk teamed up with FTR to defeat Samoa Joe & Bullet Club Gold and he also cut a promo to kick off the show.
Punk got a lot of people talking during his promo when he seemingly took a shot at The Young Bucks when he said, “You know what David Zaslav calls me?… ‘One Bill Phil.’ That’s because I am the one true, genuine article in a business of counterfeit Bucks…”
Fightful Select is reporting that Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks were not in Chicago for the June 17 episode of AEW Collision. Omega and The Bucks might not be in Chicago at all this week and may be missing AEW Dynamite at the Wintrust Arena on Wednesday. The Elite reportedly filmed pre-tapes to progress some of their angles, but there’s a good chance that they won’t be at the arena for Dynamite this week.
Although it hasn’t been officially announced it’s rumored that CM Punk may be appearing on the show instead. People close to CM Punk have claimed that he is planned to be part of the June 21 episode of Dynamite.
