New footage following former AEW World Champion CM Punk's match against Jon Moxley aired this week on Rampage, shedding more light on the nature of the former's injury.

On the last episode of Dynamite, the pro-wrestling world was treated to a title unification match between the Second City Saint and the Purveyor of Violence. Given the caliber of both the stars, fans expected a war between the two men but were instead met with a short battle.

While both the former WWE stars started off on an even footing, a high kick from Punk seemingly took his recently healed foot out. The Second City Saint reeled back from the pain, and Moxley did not waste any time capitalizing on the moment and picked up the win.

Tony Khan also announced previously unseen footage to be aired this week. The footage revealed that CM Punk could not feel his foot, indicating a more severe injury than previously ascertained.

However, the short clip did not meet most fans' expectations, who presumed that Punk would comment on his future. This led to a hail of posts on Twitter.

With no time frame determined on when CM Punk will return, fans will have to wait with bated breath to see the former world champion in action again. Meanwhile, it remains to be seen how Tony Khan will book the world title going into All Out.
