PUNK, MJF, DYNAMITE LINEUP AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2022-06-04 11:27:00

For those who asked, MJF was not at last night's Rampage taping in Ontario, CA.  As we noted last night, he's been removed from the Rampage opening and have been told he will be removed from the Dynamite opening by this Wednesday as well.

We are told there is no definitive word yet on how long CM Punk will be out after he has surgery on his foot.  AEW was aware he hurt himself after the six man tag on Wednesday but didn't get confirmation surgery would be required until Friday afternoon, a short time before last night's broadcast.

Chris Jericho was mistaken when he said Punk had to relinquish the title.  We are told that was never the plan as the company has always had interim champions when there was an issue with the reigning champion, following what UFC does.    

The bidding for Thunder Rosa's Double or Nothing ring gear is up to $5,000.  The money will be donated to victims of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting.  To bid, click here.

Scheduled for Wednesday's AEW Dynamite on TBS from Independence, Missouri at the Cable Dahmer Arena:

*Battle Royal.

*Battle Royal Winner vs. Jon Moxley to earn spot in AEW Interim Championship bout at Forbidden Door PPV.

*Hangman Adam Page vs. David Finlay.

Scheduled for Tuesday's edition of AEW Dark:

*Max Caster & The Gunn Club vs. The Dark Order.

*Lance Hoyt vs. Aaron Solo.

*Christopher Daniels vs. Steve Andrews.

*Marina Shafir vs. Skye Blue.

*Matt Sydal vs. Taylor Rust - We are told this is excellent.

*Toni Storm vs. Zeda Zhang.
