CM Punk is one of the biggest names in the world of professional wrestling. He started wrestling in the independent wrestling promotions before joining WWE, where he had a largely successful run. He won the world title multiple times and had a blockbuster rivalry with John Cena.
Despite the success he achieved, Punk was not satisfied with his booking at times and thus left WWE on bad terms. The Voice of the Voiceless stayed away from professional wrestling for years before making his debut for AEW last year on the first episode of Rampage.
Punk has lost only one match since his return to professional wrestling. Since he won a majority of his matches, he received a world title shot at AEW Double or Nothing. The former WWE Superstar had a fantastic match with Adam Hangman Page, where he ultimately defeated him to win the title.
CM Punk made history by becoming the first man to win the AEW World Championship, WWE Championship, ROH World Championship, and ECW World Championship. A Twitter user pointed out the same on the micro-blogging platform. Here’s what he wrote:
“CM Punk made history as the only man to win ROH, ECW, World Heavyweight, WWE, AEW world championships.”
CM Punk will make his first appearance as AEW World Champion on Dynamite this week
Punk has been one of the top wrestlers on the AEW roster, and he will make his first appearance on TV as the AEW World Champion on this week’s Dynamite. It will be interesting to see who emerges as his first challenger.
There are some big names like Bryan Danielson, Samoa Joe, Jon Moxley, and Sting on the AEW roster. Even the inaugural AEW World Champion Chris Jericho, former NXT Champion Adam Cole, and former AEW Champion Kenny Omega will be in the race to challenge Punk.
