CM Punk was fired from AEW after the company’s internal investigation deemed it necessary. That was a big moment for AEW, and The Big Guy was paying attention.
Ryback is in a position where he is waiting for a green light from his doctor, so he can make an in-ring return. He is healed up, and we are very happy to see that his stem cell treatments worked, and all of that hard work to repair himself paid off.
Ryback posted a short video on social media where he took a few more shots at CM Punk. He previously did so, and it seems that the Big Guy had more to say as a rumor about CM Punk’s retirement got to him.
“Word making the rounds on the streets of Chicago is the CM Punk is heavily contemplating retiring once and for all. Nothing official has been said yet, but the word going around is that is going to be the scenario.”
“So, I just wanted to say, Phil, CM Punk, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your contributions to pro wrestling. From the free ice cream bars for those fans to the lower ratings and forcing casuals to stop watching wrestling altogether. For all the drama and controversy backstage that’s been attached to you, thank you so, so much.”
“I have to feel slightly guilty, did I really take 20 years off CM Punk’s career? Did I pla a part in his early retirement? Then I think to myself, absolutely not the guys’ a complete skinny-fat jackass who did this to himself. So, sayonara, Philly-boy. Enjoy retirement. That’s the last bite, because the Big Guy’s finished.”
We’ll have to see if CM Punk really retires from professional wrestling. If his last match is really in Wembley Stadium in front of 81,000 fans, in a “Real” AEW World Title match that he won, then that would be quite a way to end things for him.
