Tony Khan On CM Punk And Daniel Bryan AEW Signing Rumors

It was previously reported that former WWE Superstar CM Punk has been in talks for a potential return to in-ring competition, but that his in-ring return will reportedly not happen in the WWE. Punk’s in-ring return will reportedly be taking place in AEW at the All Out PPV Event on September 5th from the NOW Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, a suburb of CM Punk’s hometown of Chicago. Reports would then be made that Daniel Bryan has already signed with AEW, with a source even saying that Daniel is “100% locked in” and that he is set to make his debut at the Grand Slam episode of Dynamite from the Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York.

AEW President and CEO Tony Khan was recently interviewed by the New York Post on rumors of Daniel and Punk signing with the company and while it is believed that they have already signed with the company or a deal is close to happening, the AEW President and CEO neither confirmed or denied anything as he just said he had no comment.

This is what Tony Khan said:

“I have no comment on those.” “Those are good questions but I can’t comment on those.”

Tony Khan was also asked if Bryan and Punk were to sign with AEW what would they add or contribute to the roster, to which Khan once again said he had no comment.

This is what Tony Khan said:

“I can’t comment on those two guys.” “But I think there are certainly a lot of exciting rumors right now.”
