Hall Of Famer Comments On CM Punk’s AEW Debut Being A Special Moment

We’re only a few days away from the second episode of AEW Rampage which is set to take place from the United Center in Chicago, and the event is being advertised as “The First Dance.” There’s a lot of anticipation for the show as it’s rumored that CM Punk could be making his AEW debut at the event.

CM Punk last competed in the 2014 Royal Rumble match, and even though it’s been years since he’s wrestled an official match it’s safe to say that there are plenty of fans who are hoping to see him return.

WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett recently spoke to Love Wrestling about Punk’s potential return, and he explained why it could be a special moment for the wrestling world.

“You know, Punk, as a performer or promoter [what] I’m most excited about is [that] to say that absence makes the heart grow fonder pretty much goes for everyone. In this type of scenario, it’s been a minute since he’s stepped into the world of professional wrestling with people. [He did] the UFC and that, but him reentering the industry and yes, he did some FOX stuff, but I mean, what you’re tabling here? It’s gonna be a special moment, because not many times do you see a guy that rose to his heights that dipped out and is now returning.”

“The curiosity factor alone is through the roof. How’s it going to be done? [How’s] the timing going to be done? Who’s going to be that first opponent? How’s the crowd going to accept him, or his opponent, or the story?”
