During a recent appearance on the “Lost Signals” podcast, Darby Allin recalled wrestling CM Punk at AEW All Out 2021.
The match marked Punk’s first wrestling bout since leaving WWE in 2014.
Punk defeated Allin in their singles match at AEW All Out 2021. Darby said,
“I remember that day very vividly. It was a lot of stress. A lot of stress because, you know, Punk coming back and then being his first match, I had a feeling if it fell apart, it was gonna fall on me.” In fact, he felt so much anxiety that it made him sick. “I was throwing up that day, I was so nervous. Sting came up to me and said ‘I know you’re not a religious man but can I say a prayer for you?’ And I’m just like [standing] over the trash can like ‘Sure dude.’”
