CM Punk made his big return to AEW television on Saturday night on the premiere episode of AEW Collision by opening the show with a hot promo and closed it with a win in a trios bout alongside FTR over Samoa Joe, Juice Robinson, and Jay White.
There has been some speculation as to whether Punk will appear on this week’s Dynamite.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported that The Elite (Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks have done pre-tapes to progress some of their angles, and “there’s a good chance they’re not in the arena” for Dynamite. Those close to CM Punk “claimed that he was planned for the June 21 show.”
If Punk is backstage at the show, then it would make sense not to have The Elite at the show considering their issues. Here is the current Dynamite card:
-The Hardys vs. The Gunns
-Zack Sabre Jr. & Daniel Garcia vs. Orange Cassidy & Katsuyori Shibata
-Chris Jericho, Minoru Suzuki & Sammy Guevara vs. AR Fox, Darius Martin & Action Andretti
-Jeff Jarrett vs. Mark Briscoe Concession Stand Brawl
-Blind Eliminator Tag Team Tournament for a future shot at the AEW Tag Team Titles
