We have a rather disappointing update for you today in regards to CM Punk arriving in All Elite Wrestling as it turns out that despite there being no plans for him to fight again, he remains under contract to UFC. He also doesn't seem to have much interest in returning to the world of pro wrestling despite Chris Jericho revealing in a recent interview that the newly launched promotion would love to have him.
"CM Punk’s not so much a free agent as he is a retired wrestler, from what I understand," the former WWE Superstar commented. "Of course we’d love to have Punk come in there."
It would be an amazing win for AEW if Punk did join them but if he wasn't willing to appear at All In, then that might just be the end of that. He's said in interviews that WWE killed his interest in wrestling and his mixed martial arts career has been a total failure, so here's hoping he sees the light because he could have been killing it in matches with the likes of Kenny Omega and Cody in recent years.
