CM Punk’s return to AEW, based on every backstage report and rumor over the past couple of months, appears to be imminent. But while Punk’s name has often been connected to AEW’s new weekly show, AEW Collision, there was no mention or appearance from Punk when the show was officially announced on Wednesday. The official press release named stars like Samoa Joe, Miro, Thunder Rosa and Powerhouse Hobbs while the poster also included champions like MJF, Orange Cassidy, FTR and The House of Black. Punk was completely absent.ย
