CM Punk was the wrestling world’s hottest free agent for seven years, but now he’s a company man once more. The former WWE Champion is officially signed to All Elite Wrestling, debuting with the promotion on Friday’s edition of Rampage — and creating an all-time great moment in the process. So what next? Punk’s return is part of the build to All Out, one of AEW’s quarterly pay-per-views. He’ll wrestle Darby Allin, one of the company’s biggest home-grown stars. The show’s main event — or at least, it’s main championship bout — will see Kenny Omega defend the AEW Championship against Christian Cage. The show takes place on Sept.5, here’s what you need to know about it. After a month of rumor and speculation, CM Punk officially returned to wrestling on the Aug.20 episode of AEW Rampage. The whispers started with a report from Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, one of wrestling’s most reliable journalists.
