CM Punk doesn't appear to be All Elite Wrestling bound but he still discusses WWE now and again and seemingly couldn't resist weighing in on Kofi Kingston's big WWE title win at WrestleMania

The two have been friends for years and used to travel together (Kingston made a number of appearances in WWE's amazing documentary about Punk) and the Best in the World made it clear that he feels it's been a long time coming for The New Day member. 

"It should’ve happened ten years ago," Punk said. "That’s what I’ll leave with. It’s one of those things where yes, I’m stoked that it happened now but be ahead of the curve instead of behind it."

That's obviously a dig at WWE but it's hard to think back to a time when Kingston was in a better spot than now to be WWE Champion. What do you guys think?
