CM Punk Reportedly Pushing For AEW Feud With Samoa Joe

CM Punk is expected to make his return to AEW in June for the launch of a new Saturday show, AEW Collision.

Fightful Select is reporting that a program with Chris Jericho has been pitched and while they had a “productive meeting” in recent weeks in Florida, Punk has been pitching another return opponent for the better part of a month.

“Sources close to Punk have indicated that he’s become increasingly interested in working with Samoa Joe,” the report noted.

Joe and Punk previously worked countless matches in ROH, PWG, and in the UK with their last match happening in 2005.

It’s unclear whether this pitch is for a one-off match or an extended program.
