He came, he came, and after 7 years he finally came back!
No matter how he does not tame himself, in the end he will not be able to escape the law of true incense
As soon as aew's "rampage" show kicked off this week, Chicago live fans couldn't wait to send out "cm punk!" cm punk！ The shouts and the colorful banners were even more dizzying, because almost everyone knew that the "strongest in the world" who threatened to quit the wrestling world was bound to re-enter the ring tonight
Sure enough, in the audience's tidal call, cmpunk's iconic "x" gesture came into view, followed by familiar music, familiar attire and familiar faces, and the former "world's strongest wrestler" stepped into the rope ring in front of his fathers and villagers in his hometown, officially announcing his return to the wrestling world!
I believe that many wrestling fans see this scene can be described as a mixture of feelings, if you want to use three words to convey the feelings of the heart, it must be: Ye Qinghui!
"In August 2005, I left wrestling, and in August 2021, I came back!" Cmpunk said so
Probably many fans will feel confused when they hear this sentence, didn't punk only leave WWE in 2014 and claim not to wrestle again? How did it turn out to be 2005 again?
In fact, 2005 was precisely the year when Punk left Roh and signed with WWE, in other words, the nearly decade he had played for WWE is no longer in the category of "professional wrestling" in his opinion. In fact, this method is not unreasonable, and those who understand it understand it, and the editor will not repeat it again
Punk detonated the comeback of the whole scene, to some extent, all the other contestants of the night seemed bleak, and compared to a company that purely wanted to create surprises but often did not know how to deal with the aftermath, aew's plot team has never fought unprepared battles, as early as a few weeks before punk appeared, the first opponent to greet him has been revealed, it is no one else, it is "Scorpion Emperor" Sting's disciple Darby Irene
The two have a "distant echo" on the spot this week, and their official confrontation will be staged in the "all out" competition held on September 5, local time, which will also be held in Chicago. According to CMpunk, Darby Irene is a dangerous character, but there is nothing more dangerous than wrestling with CMpunk in the ring, especially when you're in the city of Chicago!
To be honest, although CMpunk will win almost 100% of the "All Out" contest for the first time, he may eventually be destined to be an upgrade bag for the younger generation, after all, his achievements in wrestling are dazzling enough that even if he wants to deliberately erase that experience at WWE, every fan will surely remember his 434-day championship legend
Whether or not he can add another gold belt or two to his championship resume in the future, cmpunk is already an uncompromising "all elite"
