Bronson Reed was one of many wrestlers to react to CM Punk’s debut on Friday’s episode of AEW Rampage from Chicago, IL at the United Center.
Punk opened the show, which marked the first time that he had stepped foot inside of a wrestling ring on live national TV in seven years. He talked about why he returned and then issued a challenge to Darby Allin for a match at All Out next month.
Reed wrote the following about Punk’s debut:
“Well … that resonated with me deeply. I feel those words now more than ever. I don’t know what will happen with me but I need to be in the ring with .@CMPunk. He shaped my teenage years alongside Joe and we had the match below robbed from us. Kudos .@AEW #AEWRampage.”
Reed saw some of the comments made by fans regarding his initial reaction so he responded by writing, “haha calling me a mark. Sorry I’m a fan of the business im in. I forgot that Lebron hates basketball, Quentin Tarantino hates movies … Get that negative energy outta here! Burner account boys! I love pro wrestling.”
Punk will make his next appearance on AEW programming this Wednesday on Dynamite. Reed will be eligible to sign with other promotions in 30 days when his non-compete expires.
