CM Punk’s issues with The Elite remain following his reported backstage fight with Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks after AEW’s All Out 2022 pay-per-view event. He was stripped of the AEW World Title and suspended before he was brought back in June of this year.
Mark Henry talked about wanting to see Punk vs. Omega while appearing on a recent edition of the Torg & Elliott show.
“I want to see it too. It’s just a matter of time. You let things iron themselves out, and you see where things lead to. Could you imagine an AEW tournament for the World Title and on one side of the bracket, to go to the finals, you have Kenny Omega and CM Punk meet up against each other? It would be incredible,” said Henry.
He continued, “The top 100 wrestlers of all time, they’re halfway on it. CM Punk and Kenny Omega are in the top 40 of all time. People don’t realize, you go to the NFL, look up the top 100 football players, see who is in the top 40. It will blow your mind. Same thing with any other sport. I’d like to see the top 100 baseball players and see who is the top 40. It’s nothing to sneeze at. I believe in both of those guys being great competitors and I feel they have a lot left, multiple years. Kenny Omega just signed a new deal. He’s going to be around another four years.”
