CM Punk, one of the biggest stars in the wrestling world right now, is all set to face his first pro wrestling bout Royal Rumble on Sunday. CM Punk has taken down Darby Allin all out.
It can be seen that Punk is one of the biggest stars on the show, but many others are shining plenty bright as well. According to reports, Chris Jericho will take on MJF. It also said that he will retire from wrestling if he loses. The Young Bucks defend their tag titles against the Lucha Brothers in a cage match that is sure to be spectacular. Finally, Christian Cage will challenge for Kenny Omega’s AEW Championship.
Meanwhile, All Out 2021 looks to be AEW’s biggest pay-per-view yet. It takes place on September 5.

CM Punk’s return:
CM Punk officially returned to wrestling on the August 20 episode of AEW Rampage. The rumours began with a report from Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, one of wrestling’s most reliable journalists. Sapp reported on July 22 that CM Punk has been in talks with AEW for an in-ring return.
These rumours became shouts on the July 28 episode of Dynamite. At the beginning of the show, a special edition of Rampage was announced.
It will be called The First Dance, and will broadcast out of Chicago’s United Centre. With Punk being synonymous with Chicago, the Dynamite crowd broke out into a “CM Punk” chant. In the very next segment, Darby Allin said AEW is the only place to prove you’re the greatest — “even if you think you’re the best in the world.”
