10 Important Decisions AEW Have To Make

10. CM Punk

After Jon Moxley stood on top of the poker chips at Double or Nothing, you could hear the fans start to murmur: If they can get Moxley, could they get Punk? The signing does make sense in what AEW is trying to build. Much like Jon, Punk had a negative experience and exit from the WWE. After years of dedication and building his name in the indies to become a mega star, he got fired on his wedding day. Definitely enough reason to support the competition.

No doubt commanding a massive pay day in the process, Punk could be open to a return. Many fans point to All Out being in Chicago, Punk pencilled for Starrcast III, and the red stars on the posters as confirmation. Even his most recent comments about getting a text offer from AEW and Cody saying he "wouldn't be surprised to see him back in WWE" all seem to make fans' belief intensify. Perhaps he could get himself involved in the main event, staking his claim for a shot at AEW gold. Maybe even a Chris Jericho and CM Punk feud on AEW soil just in time for television.

But the question becomes: is it worth it for AEW? A huge contract to an inactive ring performer is much different than catching Moxley on his way out of WWE. A move like this could bring comparisons to WCW, grabbing already established stars and signing them to big deals. But the consensus here is that this one should be a no brainer. But what if this does become a pattern?
