CM Punk made headlines in the pro wrestling world with his shocking return to WWE at Survivor Series. Punk has signed a multi-year deal with WWE. Dave Meltzer reported that Nick Khan and Triple H were heavily involved in Punk’s return.
Before returning to WWE, CM Punk was involved in a backstage altercation with Jack Perry at AEW All In. A few days later, AEW President Tony Khan terminated Punk's contract.
Recently, Tony Khan appeared in an interview with Steve Hermon of BBC to promote AEW All In. During the interview, Khan was asked if he was surprised to see CM Punk at Survivor Series. Khan refused to comment due to a legal issue.
“Can’t talk about that, nor do I think it’s the time and the place. But, I appreciate you asking, I’m very excited about AEW All In at Wembley Stadium. Not to dodge your question, but it’s not something I can legally talk about.”

I had the chance to chat to #AEW owner Tony Khan about #AEWAllIn 2024 at Wembley Stadium ahead of tickets going on sale this week.
