Saraya Comments On CM Punk’s Reported AEW Return

Although not confirmed, CM Punk is expected to make his return to AEW as part of the company’s new Collision show this summer that will air on TNT from 8-10 p.m. Eastern time on Saturdays.

Punk has been away since All Out, where he ripped several wrestlers at the press conference and got into a backstage fight with The Elite. 

In an interview with BBC Radio Norfolk, Saraya commented on CM Punk’s impending return, 

“He’s always been an absolute sweetheart to me. He’s never once — we’ve never had any conflict whatsoever. He’s been very helpful, given a lot of advice over the years, since basically near the beginning of when I was in WWE. He was kind of just on his way out, but I remember coming up on like live event loops and stuff and he was very, very nice. And then going into WWE Backstage, always very nice. And then coming into AEW, he had reached out to me and he’s just like, ‘If you need anything,’ you know, he’s really awesome.

I want whatever’s best for business. And I feel like, if people don’t like each other, you have to find that common ground in a professional setting, you know? Because I mean there’s been people I don’t like over the years, but I’ve never let my personal feelings get in the way of business at the end of the day. If he was to come back, I feel like it would be great for AEW.”
