CM Punk Doesn’t Know How Many More Matches He Has Left, Wants To Be AEW Champion Before He’s Done
CM Punk wants to start working his way toward an AEW Title shot.
After defeating MJF in a Dog Collar Match at AEW Revolution, CM Punk spoke about potentially going after the AEW Championship during the AEW Revolution Post-Show Media scrum. Punk said he has other plans for the time being.
“I think so. There are people I want to wrestle just for wrestling’s sake, but after a while, I don’t know how much time I have,” Punk said. “I don’t know how many matches I have left. If I’m not working my way towards a title shot and I’m not trying to be where Hangman is, I don’t know what I’m doing. I think that’s something that might happen, keep your eyes on it.”
The former WWE and ROH World Champion imagines that a chase for the AEW World Championship Title is possible. However, he does like the current titleholder.
“There is a ranking system, I think I’m doing pretty good; I like Hangman, though. It’s a lot easier to wrestle someone when you hate him. I like that Cowboy,” Punk concluded.
After a seven-year absence, CM Punk is now 13-1 since returning to professional wrestling in August of 2021. The match went nearly 27 minutes before Punk defeated MJF in a Dog Collar Match.
