CM PUNK'S RETURN, KENNY OMEGA'S RETURN?, MANCE WARNER & MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2022-08-11 11:40:00

For those who have asked whether CM Punk's injury was as bad as stated, the answer to that is yes.  Punk indeed underwent surgery on his foot and is still rehabbing it we are told.  Punk's return isn't a sign that he was working the issue, at all.  He was still in bad pain just a few weeks ago and just got out of his walking boot.  I don't suspect he'll be wrestling before All Out in September.  We are told Punk wasn't hidden before the show and was out in full sight of everyone backstage.

To a person, just about everyone expects Kenny Omega to end up being The Young Bucks' partner in the Trios tournament, so we'll see if that's the case next Wednesday.

Former TNA personality Mortimer Plumtree was backstage visiting at AEW Dynamite last night.

For those who have asked, Mance Warner has not (yet) been signed by the company to the best of my knowledge.
