AEW commentator Jim Ross believes that WWE hit a home run with the return of CM Punk at last weekend’s Survivor Series 2023 pay-per-view event.
On a recent edition of his “Grilling JR” podcast, Ross admitted that he didn’t watch Punk’s WWE return live but saw the reaction on social media. He said,
“It was a perfect booking decision. It was a great creative move. (The pop) was sustained chaos. I guarantee you there’s a lot of AEW fans that went to Survivor Series. They’re wrestling fans. They don’t have this brand bullsh*t where I’m only going to support one brand. So you must not really be a wrestling fan then, right?
“How could you be a wrestling fan and not be happy for the success of others within your industry? I don’t get it. So anyway, it was great booking, good judgment by Paul Levesque. It was the perfect end to the show.”
Punk appeared on this week’s episode of RAW where he told the fans that he’s home. It has been reported that Punk will feud with Seth Rollins & Roman Reigns down the line.
