The former WWE Intercontinental Champion reiterates that Punk “dropped a ball” with his AEW debut in 2021, which while heartfelt, and emotional, was centered on Punk’s past grievances, rather than his future and AEW’s potential. “I thought it could’ve been such a party going on there, instead of a ‘let’s go back in time’ type deal.”<\/p>\n
Booker disagrees with former WCW President Eric Bischoff, who says that Punk shouldn’t come back and called the entire situation a “trainwreck,” and credits All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan for being “different than any other manager,” and thinks that could be the lynchpin to bringing back a star asset like Punk, comparing Punk to the controversial NFL wide receiver Terrell “TO” Owens. “I could see [Punk] coming back because Tony Khan is different than most.

I’m gonna get him any way I can.’ That’s the way life is, and business.”<\/p>\n
