"Come to WWE" - Fans react to rumors of major AEW stars not wanting 8-time world champion in Tony Khan's promotion

Wrestling fans on Twitter are buzzing after reports regarding former world champion CM Punk and his status in Tony Khan's AEW emerged. The latest reports indicate that several top stars in the company don't like Punk, and the majority of the roster doesn't want him back in.

Tony Khan reportedly set to make a decision on CM Punk's AEW future soon

Tony Khan, the President of AEW, has been dealing with backstage issues within his company since last September.

As per Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Khan is likely to be the one to make the decision on whether The Second City Saint returns to AEW or not. Meltzer also stated that The Second City Saint could be on the verge of fully recovering from his triceps injury.

“What it says is that he wants back in. Which we’ve already known, other people have said that too, that he’s looking to get back in. It’s up to Tony [Khan] and Tony’s gonna make a decision at some point. He’s probably just about ready, if not ready already, from the torn triceps, so it is one of those things that he can do soon enough.” [H/T: WrestleTalk]

It remains to be seen whether a return is on the cards from CM Punk. Despite the rumors, a return would certainly put fans into a frenzy.
